MOAR! – Why success isn’t enough

By Marilise de Villiers Basson

In MOAR!, de Villiers Basson shifts her focus to burnout, exhaustion, and the quiet emptiness many high achievers experience.

The author challenges traditional wellbeing programmes. These programmes often treat symptoms rather than root causes. As a result, the book encourages readers to stop doing more. Instead, it invites them to transform from the inside out.

Weaving ancient wisdom with modern workplace challenges

MOAR! introduces practical frameworks that support this shift. These include the Wellbeing Trio, the four-step ROAR process, and the ROAR for MOAR Hero’s Journey. Together, these tools guide readers toward meaningful change.

Specifically, MOAR! helps readers to:

• Understand the current wellbeing crisis.
• Lead with authenticity and purpose.
• Create thriving, people-centred work cultures.
• Reclaim energy, meaning and personal voice.

MOAR! cuts through the noise of workplace wellbeing programmes that ignore root causes. This book brilliantly weaves ancient wisdom with modern workplace challenges.
