Key Messages from this session:
Summary of the discussion by Poppy Jaman, City Mental Health Alliance
Self-care and the Five Ways of Wellbeing: stay connected; give; be active; take notice; keep learning
During the pandemic, everybody was asking “How are you?” This change has happened now, and we need to continue practicing it now
Mental health leadership matters. Workplaces are cornerstones of society and we need every single person, regardless of seniority, to demonstrate mental health leadership so it is ingrained in the rebuild, and that the mental health conversation has a seat at the table.
