Diversity & Inclusion Success Begins with Mental Health – 2020 (Actionable!)
Today you’re going to learn EXACTLY how to diversity and inclusion are influenced by mental health.
In fact, in this video, I’m going to explain why I think that mental health should be addressed as the foundation of diversity and inclusion efforts in the workplace.
With that, here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:
Diversity and Inclusion is a popular topic that’s frequently making headlines. Companies are doing their best with diversity and inclusion training to address things like stereotypes and biases in order to make sure everyone feels included and supported.
But I would argue that something is still missing and that thing is addressing the mental health of those in the workplace. I believe that mental health is the forgotten part of D&I. And to really succeed with diversity and inclusion best practices, we need to make mental health awareness the base of it. Here’s why:
People challenges and mental health challenges go hand-in-hand
Delegation efforts are impacted by your mental health and unknown biases
Addressing your mental health helps you become more self-aware which is a key to fixing diversity and inclusion in the workplace
Fear of offending others can stem from stereotypes and biases we don’t realize that we have
There is a mistaken belief that therapists are just for those struggling with a diagnosed mental health disorder. In reality, a therapist can help in many ways as I discuss in the video.
Mental health impacts both productivity and profitability. Making sure that your people are emotionally well will go a long way in helping you get your diversity and inclusion efforts off the ground.
In short, this video will give you a few actionable ways that you can address mental health to improve D&I efforts.

Today you’re going to learn EXACTLY how to approach self care for managing your mental health (step-by-step).
In fact, in this video, I’m going to share some of the specific tools that have worked for me.
With that, here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:
Self care is an important component of mental wellness. As a person who has lived with mental health challenges for most of his life, I know firsthand how critical it is. I live with depression, anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive disorder.
I discuss going to therapy, my psychiatrist, and my mental health support group. In addition, I also discuss exercise. One thing that I didn’t discuss was taking your prescription medication on time. It’s important to only make medication adjustments with the guidance and recommendation of a mental health professional.
Please understand that practicing self care doesn’t mean that your mental health challenges will go away. What it does do is make living with mental health challenges significantly more manageable. Someone once told me that you can manage what you can measure. Self care is measurable.
For example, how many times did you exercise this week? How many sessions with your therapist have you had this year? Have you been getting enough sleep?
I encourage you to embrace these self care tips, strategies, and create your own self care routine. When you choose to take care of yourself, for some oddball reason, you begin to feel better about yourself. And that’s what I want for you.
In short, this video will show you actionable self care tips in 2019.

How to Fix Mental Health in Schools – 2020 (True Story!)
Today you’re going to learn EXACTLY how to schools can start to better support the mental wellness of their students (step-by-step).
In fact, in this video, I’m going to tell you exactly what would have helped me when I was struggling with mental health challenges in school.
With that, here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:
We have a serious problem with mental health within the United States and within our schools. Over the past 20 years, the youth suicide rate around the world has been declining except for in the United States where it has increased. That’s a problem.
And, it’s not just mental health in high school that needs to be addressed. As a young child, I was expelled from three schools. I was admitted to mental hospitals three times for extended stays, I self-harmed, and I attempted suicide. These experiences have provided me with a unique perspective now as an adult on how we can better address mental health in schools.
There are three things, which I discuss in more detail during the video, that I think schools can do to start to turn the situation around.
Everyone in the school community needs to take responsibility for mental wellness.
Cultivate a culture of self-care and teach social skills.
Educate everyone on mental wellness.
Many schools think they need to rely on things like grants for mental health in school in order to make a change, but there are many free resources that are readily available to everyone (see the link below).
Mental health awareness is the key factor needed to help make a change. We can’t just rely on things like screening for mental health in schools. We all need to take responsibility to make the change.
In short, this video will show you actionable ways to begin changing the mental health culture within your school in 2019.
