    With compassion and authority, Melissa addresses the real issues and barriers of why people arent comfortable sharing about mental health at work, and how to overcome those fears. She highlights so clearly that everyone has mental health, just as we have physical health, and the importance of vocalizing this similarity.

    Julie Cassidy, Director of Sales East, North America, Bumble and Bumble

    Ive been working in the people space for more than 20 years. When I began my career, talking about mental health in the workplace was just not done. Two decades later, I had hoped we would normalize the discussion. Were not there yet, but with Melissas book, we might get there. This is a playbook for how to have some of the most difficult discussions imaginable at work. And, it just may help you help to change the world of work.

    Tracie Sponenberg, Chief People Officer at The Granite Group, Co-Founder of DisruptHR NH, and Co-Founder of HR Rebooted

    This revolutionary book removes the guesswork and minimizes the uncomfortable nature of having conversations about mental health at work. Melissa leverages her clinical expertise and research-based evidence to provide practical guidance for creating psychologically safe workplaces. After reading this book, I felt informed and empowered. This book will forever change the stigma and negative narratives associated with mental health in the workplace. It should be required reading for Human Resources Management courses.

    Ricklyn Woods, SHRM-SCP, SPHR, PHRCa, Owner of Ricklyn Woods HR Coaching + Consulting

    This book is a timely and powerful resource for leaders at all levels that are seeking to truly impact their teams at a deeper level with authenticity, empathy and genuine care for their mental wellbeing. Leading organizations recognize that to truly transform their systems, workforce and, ultimately, profitability, they need to allow for courageous conversations about mental health. Melissa does a great job of outlining actionable steps that are practical for such a complex topic that impacts all of us.

    CONTENTS

    PROLOGUE

    Im not surprised that I ended up writing this book; Im only surprised it took me this long. Between the stories I have heard socially, professionally and clinically, and what I experienced personally, I could write an encyclopedic series.

    Before I studied counselling psychology and became a clinical mental health therapist, I distinctly remember that mental health wasnt talked about at work. This wasnt even that long ago think early 2000s. This sadly faulty logic also applied in many families, schools, and other social systems for a long time.

    For years, mental health was seen as a personal issue that wasnt meant for the world of work, and if you were smart, you kept it out of there. I always thought that was odd, given that we literally bring our entire bodies and our brains to work (whether to a physical building or virtually) and we dedicate 3550 hours a week to the cause.

    I remember thinking that it seemed utterly unreasonable and unrealistic to expect people to leave their thoughts and feelings outside of work. Sadly, like many people at the time, I accepted it as the social norm, dictating that I should fall in line with this socially created compartmentalization.

    I heard countless stories from co-workers, friends, or even strangers, about how they were sure that if their boss found out how much they had been struggling with their mental health, theyd lose their job. It felt disappointing every time I heard it. As time passed on and society progressed, even after getting my masters degree in counselling psychology and clinical training, I continued to hear stories of fear from those around me. Nothing had changed, yet.
