048 What to do When You Don't Know What to do with Mental Health in the Workplace
Show Notes

In this week’s episode, we talk all about the lessons I learned from supporting one of my team through a depressive episode last year.

We also share our own thoughts about what it means to have depression, what mental health is, and the stigma that can still surround it now.

Key takeaways include:

● The importance of educating yourself, as a leader, on mental health
● How by sharing your experiences, you give other people permission to share too
● Why it’s ok to not know what to do, and as long as your intention is pure, you’ll find your way

With special thanks to Anna for this episode and for being so vulnerable and open about her experiences, and for allowing us to share them with you all.
