Mental Awareness Month
Earlier this month, I had the chance to meet a Paralympian, professional rower, Gold Medallist in London 2012, and mental health advocate, David Smith. Mental health is simply part of the human experience and thats why it becomes imperative to elevate this conversation and most importantly to reduce any stigma. With the month of May dedicated to mental health, the objective of our conversation was to spread awareness about the topic and reiterate the importance of building and finding safe spaces for people to speak up, especially at workplaces. David's journey was not only inspiring but a great catalyst amongst teammates to do their part, and to remember to check in on each other. Read more about David and his journey below.
