How to actually address mental health

Jenn Glynn and Jason Thomson Season 7 Episode 91

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 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
