A short YouTube testimonial by Carol Saadi describing her personal experience with Hodgkin's disease (diagnosed at age 25), how daily meditation (about 15 minutes) supports resilience, and her view that employers should permit employees to invest in their wellness. She notes PwC has wellness as a core value shared across its ~284,000 people and links resilient employees to stronger client problem-solving. The piece frames wellness as fundamental to workforce health and ends with a call to action: 'I'm ready to make change.'

I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease when I was 25 years old. I thought about it in terms of what do you want to make sure you accomplish before you leave this earth? You could curl up in a ball and be afraid, or you could say, this is my one shot, I got to take it. I meditate every morning. Not for a long period of time. It's about 15 minutes. But I do it every day. I think the best thing we can do for our people is give them the permission to invest in themselves. Recognizing that resilient employees bring far stronger and better capabilities to solving our clients most important problems. At PwC, we developed a series of values that we share across all of our 284,000 people. Wellness is fundamental so that they can bring their best self to work. My name is Carol Saadi and I'm ready to make change.
