To wrap up the week, we wanted to thank the admirable leaders from our community that shared their insights and stories with us. Thank you for showing vulnerability, authenticity, and strength not only in your responses but in the leadership you provide for your teams Michael Pritchard Frazer Scott Belinda Cannon Vedran Babic Jaime Gallocher.
While MHAW 2024 may be nearly over, we want to keep the conversation going. If you have found inspiration in any of the insights we have shared over the course of the week, we encourage you to share the post! Share with your teams, share with your colleagues, share with your friends and family. Continuing the conversation and raising awareness makes noise for those who may be suffering in silence.
If you’re struggling in the workplace, speak with your manager, your HR partner, or a trusted colleague. Your employer may also provide an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) which offers free confidential counselling support.
You can also seek help via the below national helplines:
- Free call or text 1737 any time for support from a trained counsellor
- Lifeline – 0800 543 354 (0800 LIFELINE) or free text 4357 (HELP)
- Suicide Crisis Helpline – 0508 828 865 (0508 TAUTOKO)
It can be hard to ask for help but know there is always support available. Acknowledging when you’re not okay is a sign of strength, not weakness.
