  • S1 Ep 10 Why Leaders Need to Make Mental Health a Priority - Nicky Young (Part 2/2)
    Sep 10 2020

    In the second part of this conversation with business consultant and former Group Managing Director of MullenLowe Salt, Nicky Young, we delve into the connection between mental health and the workplace. Lost productivity, challenges to talent retention and decreased levels of employee engagement are just some of the direct costs associated with an unhealthy work environment. Nicky explains why it’s not enough for companies to offer standalone solutions, like meditation and yoga classes, to combat this complex issue. She argues that building a healthy workforce requires emotionally-intelligent leaders who are able to identify and respond to the deeper structural concerns of their employees, which can often go unspoken. We also cover why making mental health a priority is especially important for leaders during times of uncertainty and economic hardship.

    Important note: If you are struggling with a mental health issue and need immediate help, please reach out to your doctor or local health service.

    Aug 29 2020

    Stress and burnout have reached near epidemic proportions in the workplace—and we can expect more to come in this new Covid economy. Yet many leaders, and employees, suffer in silence. Business consultant and former Group Managing Director of MullenLowe Salt, Nicky Young, wants this to change. In this two-part conversation, Nicky shares her personal experience with burnout; how this inspired her to become a mental health advocate; and why leaders need to make mental health a business priority. We discuss how the stigma of mental illness persists, as well as some of the early warning signs to watch out for in yourself, your loved ones, or friends and colleagues.

    Important note: If you are struggling with a mental health issue and need immediate help, please reach out to your doctor or local health service.

  • S1 Ep 8 Stay Calm in the Midst of Chaos | Ian Brown
    Aug 13 2020

    No matter where in the world you live, it’s hard to miss the tension out there these days. Shouting matches, name-calling and one-sided debates are the new norm. With all of this emotion fuelling the political arena, where does this leave us?

    In this episode, we discuss what it takes to stay calm in the face of chaos. My guest, Ian Brown, is an award-winning photographer whose work focuses on the human condition. Long fascinated by the elusive American Dream, Ian set out to document what this notion means to Americans of all ages, races, identities, classes, religions, and ideologies.

    Over the course of twelve years, Ian travelled more than eighty thousand miles in an old truck, visiting all fifty states and connecting with hundreds of individual Americans. As a Canadian investigating the fabric of America, Ian offers an intimate look at this divided country. His stunning portraits, and collection of hand-written stories from the Americans he met along the way, are showcased in his new book, “American Dreams”.

    In our conversation, Ian shares what he learned about true diversity on his journey into the heart of America. He explains how listening is a key to bring us closer together, and why he remains hopeful for the future.
