In the Noom Room: we welcome Raj Singh, founder of Mindhug, to explore the power of psychological safety in the workplace and its impact on employee wellbeing, innovation, and organizational outcomes.
Raj Singh shares his personal journey from the London School of Economics and Bank of England to launching Mindhug—a mission-driven mental health and workplace wellbeing platform. He recounts how his experiences with mental health challenges and information overload inspired Mindhug’s unique approach to helping individuals and organizations thrive amidst overwhelming digital signals.
- Defining psychological safety: Why feeling safe to express ideas, take risks, and be authentic is essential for engagement, creativity, and retention.
- Information overload: How the constant barrage of digital signals can trigger threat responses in the brain, shutting down curiosity, growth, and connection.
- Wellbeing and ROI: Why linking wellbeing programs to organizational objectives and strategic outcomes is vital, and how companies can measure success beyond annual surveys.
- Real-world impact: How psychological safety boosts productivity, innovation, and collaboration—while reducing turnover, stress, and absenteeism.
- Healthy habits and the Rule of One: Raj’s practical tip for breaking inertia—just do it once, and train your mind to distinguish between anticipation and reality.
Whether you’re an employee or a leader, this conversation will help you understand the critical role of psychological safety and how to foster it in your team or organization. Raj’s insights offer practical steps for navigating information overload, adopting healthy habits, and building a more resilient, inclusive, and high-performing workplace.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
