We spend 800,000 hours of our life at work. That’s the equivalent of watching the entirety of Friends over 9,000 times. Now imagine if you don’t love Friends – you probably wouldn’t choose to sit through it even once, right? 

So why is your job any different?! 

In this episode I’m talking about occupational welfare, and why it’s never too early to start thinking about your mental health in the workplace. 

So many of us get ourselves caught up in the results-driven, work hard play hard mindset that is synonymous with the corporate world. I was one of them! I’m going to tell you my story – use it as a health warning, because I want you to start really thinking about if your job is having a positive or negative affect on your mental health. 

If your job is causing you too many sleepless Sunday nights, it’s time to do something about it, and it’s not as hard as you’re telling yourself. Listen to this podcast and find out how you can start putting your mental health and personal happiness first.
