How do we address men’s mental health and make sure men are optimised in the workplace?

In this episode, I’m joined by Andrew Pain. Andrew is a TEDx and CPD accredited, mental health/wellbeing speaker, serving diverse organisations, from Specsavers to Lidl, University of Liverpool to The Coal Authority etc. He's a podcaster whose podcast, 'Men on Show', celebrates the stories and work of every-day male heroes in order to inspire the next generation of men. He's also an award-winning campaigner for men and boys, leading in his work on burnout, men's mental health and community building.

Together, we’ll discuss the crucial work Andrew does within organisations to support men’s mental health and how to optimise their potential in the workplace. He’ll share the journey that brought him into this work, his insights into what truly supports men’s wellbeing, and his strategies for creating a more supportive environment.

How can we optimise our teams when they’re going through difficult personal times?

I’ve invited Hannah Harvey onto the podcast to discuss how to support people going through divorce in the workplace. The UK divorce rate reveals that approximately 42% of marriages end in divorce, which makes up a huge amount of our workforce. But how should we, as leaders and colleagues, ensure that people’s work is still optimised during this time?

Hannah Harvey is an author, experienced Mentor, Yoga Instructor, and Podcast Host of ‘Happily Ever After,’ addressing issues from addiction to mental health. Previously, Hannah created content for major brands through her 'Mums Days' blog, including John Lewis, Tesco, and Argos.

In her book, How to Divorce Sober, she not only talks about managing the emotional and practical aspects of divorce, but also how to approach it in a healthy and mindful way. In this episode, we'll explore how leaders can better support employees going through divorce and create a resilient and compassionate workplace. Hannah will be sharing her top tips on what leaders can do to help optimise team members during what is a really difficult time for people to go through.
