Stigma is a cop out with Craig Semple
Stigma keeps people silent and unsafe at work. This episode looks at why it’s a cop out and what needs to change.
Welcome to Under the Rug at Work, where we shine light on the things that are normally swept under the rug. On this episode, our Founder and Chief Courage Officer, Nicole Turnbull, chats with former New South Wales Police detective and director of Mentality Plus, Craig Semple.
Craig shares his powerful story of life in the police force, living with post-traumatic stress, burnout and depression, and how he turned a breakdown into a breakthrough. He now uses that experience to help workplaces understand what real mental health awareness and culture look like.
In this conversation, Craig and Nicole talk about how stigma and workplace culture stop people from speaking up, the early warning signs Craig missed and now recognises, and how masking at work can hide serious struggles. They also discuss what leaders can do differently to build understanding and real empathy in their teams.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone who’s serious about breaking stigma and building workplaces where people feel safe to speak up.
