Ep 215 – So your mental health is crap & work isn't helping (advice & my experience)
Work shouldn’t cost you your peace of mind. In this episode, I get real about the everyday struggles of mental health at work—from stress that follows you home to the Sunday Scaries you can’t shake. This isn’t corporate jargon or an HR seminar, it’s an honest rant about what it actually feels like to juggle deadlines, toxic coworkers, and the constant pressure to “do more.”
I’ll share the simple, practical strategies I use to protect my sanity on the job: setting boundaries, finding small resets during the day, and handling those moments when your brain just won’t cooperate. If you’ve ever felt burnt out, anxious, or stuck in a cycle of overthinking at work, this episode is for you.
???? Expect:
A real talk rant on why work messes with our mental health
Relatable stories (and some laughs) about stress at work
Actionable tips to cope with anxiety, burnout, and pressure
First impressions (unfortunately) count very much. Here's how to hack your way into a good one.
