Mental wellbeing: work well, live well ft. psychotherapist Phil Shaw
Episode summary
That’s a wrap on Season 1 of the WorkWell Podcast! And we’re closing things out with an important conversation on mental wellbeing at work and in life.
In this final episode of season one, we're joined by Phil Shaw, psychotherapist, mental health advocate, and co-founder of Room for Therapy. Phil helps us unpack what mental health really means, how workplace culture impacts our emotional health, and why therapy isn’t just for crisis moments.
If you’ve ever felt like work is taking more from you than it gives, struggled with burnout, or just wanted to take better care of your mental and emotional wellbeing, this episode is for you.
What we talked about
- What therapy really is (and why it’s not just about "fixing problems")
- Common myths about therapy and mental health
- The deep connection between work and mental wellbeing, and why "leaving work at the door" isn’t always realistic
- Workplace discrimination, inequity, and bias as mental health risks
- Who is actually responsible for mental health at work? (Hint: It’s not HR)
- Why companies can’t "love you back" but what they can do to support your wellbeing
- How to find the right therapist and what to consider before starting
