In episode #122 of the Growth Series podcast, host Kathy Clark is joined by Emma Tomes, Managing Director of The Mental Health People, and together, they explore the often-overlooked subject of mental health in high-pressure roles like mortgage brokering. Emma shares her personal journey into mental health advocacy following a family tragedy, which led her to create a supportive space for individuals struggling with mental health.
Listeners will learn about the concept of a "stress container" and how recognising early signs of stress can be a game-changer in managing mental well-being. The episode delves into the challenges of men's mental health and the importance of creating safe spaces for emotional expression. Emma introduces the therapeutic approach of Internal Family Systems and discusses the impact of stress at home on work performance.
Offering practical strategies for maintaining mental health, such as utilising support tools like Samaritans and Shout text service, and with emphasis on the importance of daily habits like taking walks and conducting self-check-ins, this episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to improve their mental health and create a more balanced, fulfilling life.
