On Thursdays We Thrive

We Need To Start Breaking Mental Health Stigma in the Workplace


Listen Later

“Medication will numb me”. “ I can’t take that stuff; I will lose my job”. “Everyone will view me as weak”. Ever felt this way or heard this from people around you? Ever feel like you are unable to take care of yourself properly or fully explore options of mental health due to your career? Well then this is the episode for you.
Join Sam and Liana as they bring a taboo topic to the surface. The girls discuss the ways in which we can be dismissive, scared, avoidant, unknowledgeable on the idea of going to therapy and/or taking medication for our mental health. In this episode, the girls work to bring awareness and share accurate information in order to break the stigma of medication and mental health despite your workplace.
Not only do they share their own views, but they share their interviews with people from various professions who reflect on their personal views and experiences on taking care of their mental health, and how their workplace will support or discourage them to do so. Liana and Sam leave you with how to set boundaries at work, recognize red flags for a toxic work environment, and tools to take care of yourself. Follow us on IG: @onthursdayswethrive
