#106 - Interview with Jennifer Thamm - Founder and CEO of SaysLife

In this episode of CapricornConnect, we sit down with Jennifer
Thamm, Founder & CEO of SaysLife, to explore one of the most
overlooked risks in modern organizations: people risk. With over 20
years of experience at global firms like Zurich Insurance, UBS, and
Thomson Reuters, Jennifer brings a unique perspective at the
intersection of risk management, digital transformation, and
ethical governance. Her mission is clear: help organizations build
resilience by creating healthier, high-performing work
environments. We dive into the growing impact of mental health in
the workplace, where over 80% of employees report challenges and
stress-related issues cost companies more than $1 trillion
annually. Jennifer shares why traditional well-being initiatives
often fall short, and why companies need a more structured,
data-driven approach. You’ll learn how Says Life is tackling this
problem with a privacy-first platform that empowers employees while
giving leadership the insights they need to act, without creating
fear, blame, or loss of trust. We also discuss: - Why leadership
well-being is often ignored — and why that’s a critical mistake -
The hidden cost of absenteeism and presenteeism - How to manage
organizational risk without invading employee privacy - Why “not
knowing” is no longer a valid strategy for leaders - The reality of
loneliness at the top This conversation is a must-listen for
founders, executives, and anyone responsible for building resilient
organizations in an increasingly complex world. Tune in to learn
how to turn well-being into a strategic advantage.
