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”.

Today’s guest is Dr Paul Conti. Paul is a psychiatrist and author, specialising in trauma and the impact it can have on our minds and bodies. His 2022 book Trauma: The Invisible Epidemic, comes with an endorsement from Lady Gaga, who claims he saved her life.
In this episode, Paul and Stephanie talk in depth about trauma, both individual and collective, how we recognise it, and how we can work to heal from it. Paul emphasies the importance of placing equal value on our mental health as our physical health, and shares tips and advice on how to do that. They discuss the concept of inherited trauma, and what to do if you feel that’s something affecting your life.
And Paul also reminds us of how to take joy in the simple things, and find gratitude in the every day.
Content warning: this episode contains discussions around mental health, suicide and trauma.
