Podcasts about sicknotweak

Employees are burnt out, disengaged, and silently struggling with their mental health. Meanwhile, leaders assume they're doing enough because their company offers an EAP (Employee Assistance Program) or has a "Mental Health Matters" poster in the breakroom. But most employees never use these resources. Not because they don't need help, but because they don't feel safe enough to ask for it. This silence is costing businesses productivity, innovation, and even lives. So, how do we change this? How can leaders not just acknowledge workplace mental health but actually win the fight for better well-being—permanently? That's exactly what we unpack in this powerful episode of the Happiness Squad Podcast with Ashish Kothari and Michael Landsberg, a leading voice in mental health advocacy.Michael Landsberg is a Canadian sports journalist and mental health advocate, best known as the longtime host of Off the Record on TSN. He has been a prominent voice in raising awareness about depression and anxiety, openly sharing his own struggles to reduce stigma. Landsberg founded SickNotWeak, a mental health advocacy initiative, and continues to speak publicly about the importance of mental health support.For leaders who want to fix workplace mental health for good, it's not about offering more benefits. It's about changing how it is talked about and handled at work.Things you will learn in this episode:• Why People Stay Silent About Mental Illness• Hope as the Missing Piece in Depression Recovery• The Business Case for Mental Health in the Workplace• First Step: A Mental Health Program That Actually Works• Why Leaders Need to Be Vulnerable to Fix Mental HealthTune into our full episode with Michael Landsberg and take your first step toward better mental health.Resources:✅• Michael Landsberg's website: https://www.michaellandsberg.ca/• First Step – Mental Health Program by Michael Landsberg: https://www.greenshield.ca/en-ca/health/letsbereal • Sick Not Weak - Mental Health Community: https://www.sicknotweak.com/ • Alcoholics Anonymous Program: https://www.addictioncenter.com/treatment/12-step-programs/alcoholics-anonymous/ • Health Insight with Michael Lansberg: https://www.healthinsight.ca/advocacy/michael-landsberg-on-the-record-about-mental-health/• Darkness and Hope: Depression, Sports, and Me (Documentary featuring Michael Landsberg) : https://www.mcintyre.ca/titles/SST001 • McKinsey Study on Mental Health and Burnout: https://www.mckinsey.com/featured-insights/mckinsey-explainers/what-is-burnout • Deloitte's Mental Health in the Workplace Study:

One of Canada's best know sports broadcasters, and now mental health advocate, opens up about his own battle with depression including his darkest day.

Self-care - it's a trendy term, but what does it mean? And does it have to be so mushy? Legendary TV broadcaster and mental health advocate Michael Landsberg, founder of the Sick Not Weak mental health support service, joins Liana to talk about how we see ourselves, how we treat ourselves and how to achieve a happier, more fulfilling life.

A good day for Michael Landsberg goes up to about a seven but not really any higher than that. His mood doesn't raise up to an eight, nine, or ten due to the medication he takes for his longstanding major depressive disorder. But Michael's low days don't go below a four thanks to the same medication. It's a bargain that Landsberg is comfortable with. We also discuss Landsberg's discovery of his own depression and anxiety, how he's treated it, and whether the fight against stigma is going well.Learn more about #SickNotWeak, the charity founded by Michael and his daughter by visiting www.SickNotWeak.com.Thank you to all our listeners who support the show as monthly members of Maximum Fun.Check out our I'm Glad You're Here and Depresh Mode merchandise at the brand new merch website MaxFunStore.com!Hey, remember, you're part of Depresh Mode and we want to hear what you want to hear about.

Michael Landsberg is one of the best-known personalities in Canadian broadcasting, commonly known for hosting the the show "Off The Record". Landsberg has been with TSN since the network's inception from its debut in 1997, to its finale in 2015. In his documentary Darkness and Hope: Depression, Sports, and Me, Landsberg shared his own struggles with depression and interviewed other famous individuals about their own battles. Landsberg is an ambassador for Bell Let's Talk, an initiative raising awareness about mental health, and he is the founder of #SickNotWeak, a charity that reframes mental illness as a health issue, rather than a character flaw. In this episode of the Own it podcast, Landsberg defines mental illness and discusses some of his personal battles with depression, including some of his hardest days. He shares his advice for those struggling on how to help themselves, as well as how a friend or family member can support someone struggling with a mental illness. He shares stories from his career and personal life and gives advice on how to live a fulfilling life despite living with a mental illness.

I chat with Michael Landsberg, former host of TSN's Off The Record, about mental health. Michael shares his story about living with anxiety and tackling depression in his everyday life. We engage humor into the conversation, Michael razzes me just a bit on my bantering skills and I ask Michael a few random rapid fire questions. Together, with his daughter, Michael runs an organization and charity called Sick Not Weak, where he advocates for and shares about the importance of mental health awareness.

This week I had an incredible conversation with Michael Landsberg about his Sick Not Weak initiative. In 2009 Michael shared his then decade long battle with severe depression on Off the Record (the TV show he hosted on TSN). He was stunned to realize that by simply sharing his illness in a totally open way, and using the platforms he had available – that he could change people's lives- perhaps even save them. With that knowledge, in 2016 he founded (with others of course) #SickNotWeak. We had an amazing conversation all about shifting our perspective on mental illness. If you want to learn more about him, you can go to his website at michaellandsberg.ca or sicknotweak.com. Enjoy! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/dr-greg-wells/support

Listen in as two mental-health advocates discuss the role meds have had in their depression-management and how to talk with someone who may be taking them off the table. www.sicknotweak.com/

One of depression's most insidious characteristics, is its intent to convince us we don't have it; that our dark thoughts, loss of energy, and inability to experience joy are personal characteristics and failings vs. symptoms-- that we are just too weak to handle life the way others are able to. Believing that dissuades us from treating it like a medical condition for which there are treatments. Believing that keeps us trapped in a downward spiral that costs us on many levels. The time and experiences we lose to it cannot be regained. In a candid discussion with mental-health advocate and sports journalist Michael Landberg, we talk without shame about our shared experiences and battles with depression and make the important distinction between being sick and being weak.

Tooth Fairies, Celebrities, and Being Dapper Online - An OBVIOU5 Voice – Episode 31  To start off I want to introduce a new podcast that just got added to the OBVIOU5 Media Group.  My good friend PJ and I have started the “PJ and Clay Experience”, and you can see that up on Friday mornings. You are able to download it anywhere where you have your podcast feeders.  In that podcast we talk about parenting, being 40 and growing up in this world, we talk about the hospitality industry, and we talk about sports. So, if that's something that you're looking forward to, you can find us on Twitter @PJandClay and you can find us on iTunes, Spotify, or any other wonderful podcast app.   Wet Your Whistle Wednesday  Alley Kat Brewing has been around in Edmonton for the last 25 years.  I picked up one of the mixer packs, and it comes with the Scona Pilsner, Buena Vista Brown Ale, the Fish Bone New England IPA, Fullmoon Pale Ale, ApriKat Apricot Ale, as well as the Main Squeeze Grapefruit Ale. Now the thing I wanted to quickly touch on, usually when I get a fruity beer, I don't enjoy it because it's just too sweet, and you can't enjoy more than one, whereas Alley Kat with their two fruit beers that they have out, the ApriKat and the Main Squeeze; it's such a subtle hint of fruit that it just adds to the flavor and adds to the whole beer in general. The brewery is located just north of the Whitemud crossing on 99th, in Edmonton.  Parenting  I wanted to talk about the point in time we keep playing the fantasy of the Tooth Fairy, Easter Bunny, Santa Claus, or whatever your religion follows, or what time do we say okay that's enough.  I say just enjoy the moment that you're in.   Mental Health   I actually want to give a shout-out to all of the celebrities and all the professional athletes in all the people with any kind of status out there, or a huge number of followers that have really stepped up and embrace their own mental health.  Thank you; here are a few of the people that I follow and who have helped me along my path:  Robin Williams  Michael Landsberg - @HeyLandsberg #SickNotWeak  Kelly Hrudey - @KellyHrudey  Tyler Motte - @tmotte_14  Prince Harry – Better Up  Dwayne Johnson - @TheRock  Dapper  Living the lifestyle and walking the walk.  We're dressing fine we're talking fine we're opening doors, everything's great, but until you are dapper within, until you are stoic in your everyday movements, and that includes online.  I want you to find out all the facts and I want you to find out both sides of the story and then I want you to make an educated choice on if you need to reply.  If you do reply make it a positive reply. If it's helping that person commenting and commending that person, great. If you don't agree with that person, excellent, can you educate that person on why you feel that way. Being dapper is a lot more than dressing well and getting a good haircut. Being dapper is a lot more than opening doors and paying the bill, being dapper is the way that you interact with people, whether it's face to face or online.   Dad Tip of The Day  “The best thing in life is finding someone who knows all of your mistakes all of your weaknesses, and still thinks that you're completely amazing.”  @CaptainOBVIOU5  @PJandClay  @Alley_Kat_Beer  @HeyLandsberg  @KellyHrudey  @tmotte_14  @TheRock  Better Up

Geoff knows the difficulties of fighting literal fires and figurative ones, whether it may be the fires of stress or the fires of life itself. Especially with the COVID-19 pandemic, it is imperative that one takes care of oneself mentally and physically, and that everyone reach out on their own initiative to a person in need, even if they do not know the tribulations that person is in. In this episode, Geoff talks about his journey from law school to legal practice and to firefighting, the skills gained from firefighting, firefighting in a COVID-19-ridden world, and tips for controlling stress in these challenging times.  Below are some of the numerous resources available to students and professionals for mental health support.

Throughout this survivor of journey which has been such a huge part of my life in recent years especially, I have come across countless incredible people from all walks of life, from all around the world. I can still remember the first time I hopped online and searched for "survivor chats" on Google. That was a moment that forever changed my view of what being a survivor was, and it gave me a sense of the support available from people just like me who were struggling to work through a past filled with invalidation, abuse, and constant struggle.One of the people that I connected with early on in my journey, was an incredible woman named Jody Betty. We met on Twitter and over the years have continued to follow each other, support our respective blogs, and collaborate. Jody wrote a post on Surviving My Past, entitled "The Safe Place that Saved My Life". Where she talks about how her mind takes her to a safe place, a safe memory, to escape the pain of an abusive past.Jody is an active writer for her own blog, JodyB2016.wordpress.com, as well as being a regular contributor on Sick Not Weak, with her column, Raw and Open, and on The Mighty .Her stories center around Mental Health Advocacy and writing about her own struggles as a 3 time suicide attempt survivor, and being diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder, Major Depression, and ongoing struggles with passive suicidal ideations. Her traumatic past includes being sexually abuse as a child, sexually assaulted as a teenager, as well as experiencing domestic violence at home.Jody bravely shares her journey to help others realize they are not alone, and that here is hope even when that means you somehow just survive the day, hour by hour. Throughout the years of her writing, and in the time that I've known her, countless people across the globe are encouraged and validated by the vulnerable way that Jody writes. She is as authentic as she is raw and open about her life; and through that vulnerability she is able to continue her own healing and help others along the way.A few months ago, Jody reached out to me about coming on the podcast to share some of her story in a new way, by using her voice, literally. Of course, I welcomed the opportunity to chat with my friend and amazing survivor, because her story is one that cannot be told enough. Like all survivors who choose too, and are able to, "get this stuff out of our heads", there is comfort and healing by opening up and telling others about our struggles and triumphs.During my chat with Jody on this episode of the podcast, she opens up about the abuse she suffered starting at birth and continuing into adulthood, and some of her ongoing story:Being born to a mother who was addicted to drugs and alcohol, and how her struggles in life began so very young.In and out of foster homes, each time being pulled out and relocated because of abuse happening in the home.An experience of nearly drowning which caused a fear of getting a bath or being around waterBeing sexually assaulted by a group of people at a party, when she was 16.That experience lead her to her completely closing out the world and shutting down inside.The trauma of seeing her adopted mother pass away after battling cancer, when Jody was 19.Her attempts at taking her own life, and the ongoing passive suicidal ideations that she lives with still today.Coping strategies she uses to fight back Support the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/sPH8pMZ)

My dad came from a generation where no one talked about mental illness or suicide. Men in particular showed no vulnerability or signs of struggle, psychological or physical. To show any emotion was to appear weak, and real men were not weak.I never saw my father cry.

I have never talked about it. It hasn't served me to not talk about it, as the bouts of depression get deeper and longer."Those are the words of one of our guests today Brian Pincott.1 in 10 Canadian men will experience major depression in the course of their lives3 out of every 4 suicides are men.The Canadian Mental Health Association says this;It’s being called a silent crisis, a sleeper issue.

Michael shares the details of his continuous journey through life while dealing with depression and anxiety. He talk about how to overcome the ego that stops us from sharing. We discuss how mental health issues are similar to a street fight where you look for any tool you can to help win the fight.

On this episode of the podcast, I'm talking with returning guest Erika Reva, of The We in Me. I first met Erika through Twitter, and I reached out to see if she might be interested in writing a guest blog post for Surviving My Past. To this day, that post is still one of the highest viewed pieces of content on the blog, which speaks not only to her ability as a blogger, but her genuine desire to share her story, continue her healing journey, and also help others who live with DID. Since then she has joined me on the podcast, and we've remained in contact through social media and periodic emails following each other's journey. After one such recent email exchange, I learned of a new program she had created, called Living DID. After hearing more about it, I knew I wanted to see if she'd be interested in coming back on Beyond Your Past, to share with us how this program came to be, what it's about, and the feedback she's received from participants who've taken it. As Erika outlines: The feedback has been wonderful and many others with DID & trauma disorders have contributed their stories and journey’s for us to share as various examples throughout the discussion based course. Each week we delve into detailed discussion based lectures that pertain to various topics on DID.  Week 1- intro to us (The We in Me) and the course. Week 2-  Protectors, these parts that are often demonized and feared will be discussed Week 3- Triggers Week 4- Littles, the young traumatized parts that are protected and hidden Week 5- The problems with Docs. Week 6- Therapy, an in depth look on what therapy can/does look like for someone with DID and as the psychologists ways to best help them. Week 7- Relationships & Closing Focus this final week will be on relationships within the system, people such as romantic or friend type relationships as well as the correlation of BDSM & the trauma community that is vastly overlooked. As you'll hear, Erika has fostered collaborative relationships with her local NAMI chapter, and the Chicago Police Department to help educate first responders on how they can prepare for and have a better understanding of, the challenges of walking into a situation involving victims of trauma and those living with DID.  She's also been invited to speak at an event sponsored by #SickNotWeak, not-for-profit corporation started by Michael Landsberg. It's always such a pleasure to talk with Erika, and to discuss Dissociative Identity Disorder with her and others who live with it and have decided to take their story and use it to try to help others. The more light we can share on this topic, the more we continue to educate ourselves and those who are affected with DID. Be sure and follow Erika and her work with Living DID on , TheWeInMe.com - and follow her on Twitter and Instagram @TheWeInMe.
