Stop Overcomplicating Mental Health at Work - Episode 74
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We’ve made mental health really hard at work. In this episode, Chris Burkhard sits down with Stephanie Lemek, founder of The Wounded Workforce, to simplify the conversation.
Stephanie translates complex psychological concepts into actionable leadership tools. We discuss:
- Why accountability is a mental health tool.
- The "Three E's" of trauma and how they show up at work.
- How to use "Choice" to empower your team.
- Practical resources like 2-1-1 and EAPs.
