About the show
The world is changing more rapidly than we ever thought possible. Technology and lifestyle solutions are our new normal; from the workplace to our social lives, how we monitor our wellbeing to how we raise our children. Whether it’s AI, wearable devices, superfoods or biotechnology, there’s rarely time for us to catch a breath before the next innovation is unveiled. But are we emotionally, physically and spiritually wired to thrive amidst such rapid change?
How Do We Manage? seeks to answer just that. Each week host Stephanie von Bismarck sits down with some of the world’s best thinkers, trailblazers and extraordinary people. They explore how to navigate some of life’s complexities and find a balance in this fast-moving world, without feeling overwhelmed and losing sight of what truly matters.
From the challenges of digital transformation to personal resilience, from sustainability to innovation. Across the series we’ll share practical tools and uncover inspiring ways to help us all keep up – and even thrive – while answering the simple question “How Do We Manage”.

According to the World Uncertainty Index we’re living through the most uncertain times since the financial crash in 2008. Uncertainty can apply to so many things in our lives from wider issues like a turbulent economy, to decisions that might affect our future, for example choosing what to study at university, and even in the minutiae of our day-to-day lives like deciding which route will get us home in time to see our kids before bedtime. Uncertainty shows up in our lives multiple times everyday, but how do we push through it successfully without getting stuck?
This is something that co-authors Sam Conniff and Katherine Templar-Lewis wanted to work out, and so they wrote a book called ‘The Uncertainty Index: How to feel calmer, happier and more confident in an uncertain world’. It serves as an interactive guide through how uncertainty shows up in our bodies and what we can do to recognise it and turn it into a positive feeling rather than a worrying one. Working alongside scientists, psychologists and case studies who have experienced some incredibly uncertain times, the book has resulted in the most extensive scientific study into Uncertainty.
In this episode Stephanie speaks to Katherine about the tools we have to navigate uncertainty, why uncertainty means opportunity, and learns how you can take part in this ongoing study.
