In this episode, I’m joined by three incredible guests, each offering a unique lens on mental health - a workplace Mental Health First Aider (MHFA), someone who’s faced their own mental health challenges, and another who’s now using their lived experience to support others as an MHFA.
This podcast is about breaking the silence in the workplace and beyond. These are raw, honest conversations. We talk stigma, support, and the small steps that can make a big difference. It’s real, it’s relatable, and it’s something we all need to hear.
So whether you're struggling, supporting someone, or just trying to understand what it means to be human, this episode is for you.
