Mental Health

How should we talk about our mental health?

How should we talk about our mental health at work?

Andy and Rach are back with the still, rather awkward question – How is your mental health?

We delve into questions like, how should we talk about mental health at work, as a leader, as a colleague?

How do we bring up a subject that can sometimes lead to fear of judgement?

Well, fear not, the stigma relating to mental health is improving by the day and we share advice on all of these questions and more by referencing some fantastic Asking For A Friend episodes.

⁠How do I let my team know that I'm stressed or not coping?⁠

⁠How do I deal with a manager that has no empathy?⁠

⁠How do I build up the courage to talk about my mental health with someone at work?⁠
