An email an employee sent to her CEO, and his response, went viral. Talking about Mental Health still carries a stigma, especially in many workplaces. According to the Canadian Mental Health Association, 20% of Canadians will personally experience a mental illness in their lifetime. This is a great article that reminds us that talking openly about mental health is so important.
It’s 2017 and Mental Health is still an issue in the workplace.
Last week a personal email I wrote was retweeted over 7,000 times, and liked by almost 30k people. I had friends reaching out to me stating that I was “Blowing up on their Twitter feed.” I wasn’t expecting the exposure, but I am so glad I was able to have such a positive impact on so many people.
