This week Peter Kelly and I have been chatting with Amy McKeown who is an Award-Winning, Health, Mental Health and Wellbeing Strategist and an advocate for women's health. We spoke about how having an end-to-end workplace mental health strategy is so important. This requires businesses to assess the root causes of the issues that are contributing to workplace stress and address these rather than being reactive in their approach and purely treating the symptoms.

If you think mental illness or disorders are just affecting a small group of people…here is a stat to put things into perspective. 42% of the global workforce has experienced a decline in their mental health since the beginning of the pandemic.  42% isn't a number to shake a stick at… It begs the question, why is there still such a strong stigma around topics regarding mental health? With more people than ever experiencing it now, we have an amazing opportunity to enter into compassionate conversation and end the stigma once and for all.  Our guest today is working towards this goal with fierce passion. Michelle E. Dickinson is a Wellbeing Strategist and passionate mental health advocate. She sees herself as the bridge that helps people get comfortable with their mental health. Allowing them to reach out and get the support they need before a crisis hits. Michelle takes us on a journey through her childhood from growing up with a mom who had severe bipolar disorder to shedding her anger and learning to heal with compassion and understanding.  It wasn't until she was diagnosed with depression that Michelle really dove into therapy. There she would learn through extensive self-discovery and patience that her childhood was more than distant memories. You'll hear how Michelle has shaped her life for the better, not in spite of her mom's abuse, but by using it as motivation to create psychological resilience and mental health strategies that cultivate cultures of compassion. Listen in as we discuss the importance of bringing this into the workplace and how leaders can set an example and create a safe place for their employees.  If you are struggling with your mental health, chances are you aren't the only one. This episode will leave you feeling empowered to take a step out and have that brave conversation. It may just change the course of your life for good.  Always in your corner,  Chuck and Clint For more resources or to get in touch with Michelle, check out the links below!    More Of What's Inside: Growing up with a mentally ill parent Finding support outside of home The journey of forgiving her mom Changing the perspective on Bipolar Disorder Repeating patterns based on your childhood Being diagnosed with depression The power of your relationship with your parents Educating the corporate space on mental illness How you can support the people you lead Normalizing conversation on mental illness Setting the tone as a leader  Using self-awareness to root out bias And much more!     GUEST LINKS: Website: https://www.careforyourpeople.com/ Website: https://www.michelleedickinson.com/ Website: https://breakingintomylife.com/ Website: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCn6Yaq3AqLUebGmfZoRdB4Q Instagram: @michelledickinson71 Twitter: @mdickinson13 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/michelle.dickinson.146?ref=bookmarks LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michelle-e-dickinson-7882013 Free Book Exerpt: http://breakingintomylife.com/excerpt Website: http://www.mantherapy.org/   LINKS: malarchuk.com/book  malarchuk.com  www.thecompassionateconnection.com  www.warriorsunmasked.com  Follow us on Instagram Like us on Facebook Subscribe To Our YouTube My Community Contact   Episode Minute By Minute: 0:02 - What we cover today!  1:38 - Introducing Michelle E.

Our guest, Michelle E. Dickinson, is a very passionate mental health advocate, a TED speaker, and a published author of a memoir entitled Breaking Into My Life. She goes first and sees herself as the bridge that helps people get comfortable with their mental health so that they reach out and get the support they need before they hit a crisis. She makes it ok to not be ok and thrives on making a real difference in the lives of others – especially around their wellbeing. After years of playing the role of child caregiver, Michelle embarked on her own healing journey of self-discovery. She went on to spend years working to eradicate the mental health stigma within her own workplace by elevating empathy and compassion, causing more open conversations, and leading real change in how mental illness is understood. She also knows first-hand what it feels like to struggle with a mental illness after experiencing my own depression due to challenging life events. This has provided her with a rich perspective. Michelle is out to do her part to eliminate the stigma by normalizing the mental health conversation within the workplace and beyond. She partners with innovative leaders to bring her programs and mental health strategies to help them cultivate cultures of compassion for those living with or caring for those with invisible disabilities. Her Resilience webinar has made an impact with empowering thousands of employees during COVID-19 quarantine.

Highlights Mental health awareness: Mental health is a topic so many of us are uncomfortable talking about. We have to turn up the volume about brain health and normalize the conversation. Courage: Some real courageous athletes and celebrities make mental health cool by admitting their own challenges and that it's okay to be human and talk about it.  Compassion: “Are you okay” can make all the difference for someone. Check in with people who are suffering and talk to them as they suffer in isolation and silence. Inclusivity: Be truly inclusive of people with all abilities so that they can be 100% themselves and accepted for what they are. Mental illness is no different than a physical illness.  Heart-centered leadership: It's important for leaders to cultivate trust that if they ask if someone is okay, they're getting the real story. You don’t have to fix it, you simply have to extend your heart to another human being. Game face: Let your guard down at work and take off that game face for a second.  Stress-management: Your mental well being should be your priority. If you feel the imbalance, get the support you need. Do what you need to do to nourish yourself. Authenticity: Our culture does not want us to be authentic. Find a culture that is supportive of anything you need.  Culture: Investigate the cultures of organizations. Look at how they're leading through their example and talk to other employees in terms of its authenticity. Mental health bias: We all come to the table with our own biases. It has to do with self-awareness and educating people so they can lead from a place of compassion. Empathy: Extend yourself without fear and give people the benefit of the doubt.  Journey: Look in the mirror and heal some of those pains and past experiences to become a better version of you. Unconditional love: Learn to separate the person from the illness. You can hate the illness, but don't hate the person.  Conversation: One in three Americans in the U.S. either have anxiety or depression. Then why are we not talking about it?  Be proactive: As employers, think about how you can keep your employees healthy instead of just watching your disability costs go up? Help them build psychological resilience. Endurance: It's a marathon, not a sprint. People don't take care of their well being and they hit burnout because they're not constantly nourishing themselves along the journey.  Loyalty: Breed loyalty in a time when it's so difficult for people and give them what they need so that they can stay focused and engaged. Leverage: There are so many people who have major depressive disorder who are killing it for their company. It's possible for you to be diagnosed and get the care you need. There's no shame. Leverage the talent you have!
