In this episode, Monica sits down with a person who has left a lasting positive impact on her life—her former manager, James.
Monica shares how working with James was an extraordinary experience that went beyond the typical boss-employee relationship. He was not just a leader; he was a mentor and a friend, creating an environment where everyone felt included, respected, and safe to be their authentic selves.
Throughout the episode, Monica and James engage in an in-depth conversation about mental health in the workplace. Drawing from his personal journey and struggles, James opens up about the pivotal decision to change careers after dedicating an impressive 17 years to the same company. You'll hear about James' journey from an engineer to an entrepreneur, as he took the leap to start his own business.
But James' story goes beyond professional success. As a devoted father, he shares with authenticity and vulnerability some of the most challenging moments in his life. Coping with the loss of his father while becoming a father himself was a profound experience, made even more difficult by the necessity to handle it in the midst of a divorce, co-parenting, work, and studies, all at once. The episode highlights how these life events took a toll on James' mental health, and his resilience in overcoming these challenges.
