If you struggle with your mental fitness and mental health (or work with someone who does), you want to listen to Leslie Bennett on this week’s show.

Every time I have a conversation with Leslie, I walk away with so many new ideas, strategies and insights. 

This show is no different, and I don’t think the term “self care” comes up even ONE TIME.

Practical and powerful ways to support your people. 

Segment 01 - The Problem
Between my company’s new back-to-work initiatives, a toddler at home and a side hustle I created during the pandemic – I’m burning out. How do I find balance here with my mental health…and my life?

Segment 02 - What to Do First
How to understand and be empowered to take control of your mental health.

Segment 03 - Reality
How to deal with things like power dynamics in the real world of mental health.

Segment 04 - Empathy 
“You don’t need to have an answer…” There’s a difference between knowing and getting it right and being curious. How to ask “are you ok?” and not be afraid of the answer.
