Today we are joined by Meg and Sarah to talk about mental health in the hospitality industry. We discuss our daily interactions with the general public, as well as the long term effects of working in such an exposed, customer facing industry, surrounded by alcohol, and consisting of intense shift work.
We will also be discussing Vincent Van Gogh as our Drinker of the week, and trying the famous Absinthe cocktail, the Green Fairie, along with discussing some of it's origins.
If, like many in the hopsitality industry, you have ADHD or are neurodivergent, you might prefer listening to podcasts at a faster speed setting.
If you, or someone you know, is in need of mental health support, support is available 24/7.
Call: 116 123 to talk to the Samaritans UK.
