Hadleigh Fischer is also the Founder and Managing Director of Resilience Agenda, one of the world’s leading mental health awareness social enterprises. Resilience Agenda’s diaries, notebooks and gift items have inspired over 35,000 people around the world, and they now have over 25,000 supporters online. The Resilience Agenda online community is now the world’s most prominent and active leader of the global Mental Fitness movement.

Hadleigh’s talks, keynotes and seminars inspire people to work on their Mental Fitness just like their physical fitness. The key principle here is that we all have mental health, not just those people with a diagnosis of illness. That's because mental health is about more than just mental illness. Good mental health is about building the resources, habits and rituals of self-care, recovery and resilience, and sharing a normalised, inclusive, engaging and purpose-driven approach to well-being with others. 

With his unique story-telling style, evidence-backed research, and practical no-nonsense strategies, Hadleigh shares how we can all better understand, improve, and talk to others about mental health in a positive, proactive, preventative way - free from jargon, stigma and misunderstanding.
