The InspirED Podcast: Leading the Way in Education

Why Women Leaders Need to Talk About Mental Health


Listen Later

Women leaders are burning out faster than ever.

And too often, we’re doing it in silence.
In this episode of The InspirED Podcast, Andrea opens up a conversation we need to be having: why mental health isn’t just a personal issue, but a leadership issue. She unpacks how stigma, self-silencing, and the pressure to “hold it all together” are taking a toll—and what it looks like to lead differently.
