Now, more than ever, a supportive environment for mental health is essential. As we strive to create a workplace environment in which everyone can talk more openly and proactively about mental health, most people struggle with how best to respond when they are concerned about a colleague.

Episode Highlights
- Dealing with the power dynamic with leadership
- "Psychological safety is not relaxing your standards, feeling comfortable, being nice and agreeable, or giving unconditional praise. Psychological safety is a culture of respect, trust, and openness where it's not risky to raise ideas and concerns" Amy Edmonson
- Listening and creating psychological safety
-- ask open questions
-- Summarize what they said and repeat it back to them.
-- Reflect: repeat a word or phrase back to them
-- Clarify: Tell me more about that...
-- Give words of encouragement: "Go on" or "I see"
-- Affirm and acknowledge and then share resources
