About this listen

 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".

  • How Do We Manage Male Fertility?

    How Do We Manage Male Fertility?
    Apr 20 2026
    Fertility issues in a heterosexual couple generally fall into a 50/50 split between men and women. So why then, when we talk about infertility in a couple trying to conceive, does the focus often fall to the woman? Even in a world of increased research and technology around having a baby, men’s fertility is still an under-discussed topic. Dr. Anand Patel is a UK-based GP and leading specialist in men’s fertility. He tells Stephanie just how underresearched it is in medicine, and walks us through what getting your fertility tested properly looks like, how to change your lifestyle to optimise your sperm, and to remove some of the stigma around male infertility.

  • How Do We Manage Living Longer?

    How Do We Manage Living Longer?
    Apr 13 2026
    Scrolling through social media we’re presented with all sorts of methods to live longer: supplements, bio-hacking, optimisation. All this speaks to a very individualistic approach to health, but actually one of the biggest factors to maximise your longevity is where you live. Today’s guest, Dr Devi Sridhar is a professor and Chair of global public health at Edinburgh University. She’s written a book called ‘How Not To Die (Too Soon)’ that looks at how governments handle food, education, healthcare systems - even policy around gun violence, clean water and safe roads - can have a huge impact on life expectancy. She poses the idea of making longevity a collective thing, rather than putting the pressure on individuals. Your postcode can have a huge impact on your health; whether that’s to do with food, education, or healthcare systems; or even policy around gun violence, safe roads and clean water. In this episode Dr Sridhar tells Stephanie about the state of health around the world, the countries that we can learn from and the things you can change in your life right now to help you live longer.

  • How Do We Manage The True Price of Bread?

    How Do We Manage The True Price of Bread?
    Apr 6 2026
    In 2015 the UN warned us that there are only 60 harvests left until the earth’s soil is too degraded to support efficient food production. Our food systems are weak and something needs to change for more sustainable modes of farming. But how realistic is that on a large scale? Today we’re tackling the issue with George Lamb. During a break from his successful career as a TV and radio presenter, George met the music producer Andy Cato, who had become aware of the issues with agriculture and food and wanted to do something about it. Together they founded Wildfarmed, a producer of bread and flour made by farms using regenerative methods that protect wildlife and keep the soil healthy enough for us to keep growing for longer. Today he tells Stephanie about his journey, how everyone can choose a better food system through where they put their money, and why we need to be better educated about where our food comes from.
