Introducing a Free, Action-Oriented Resource – with Amantha King

Welcome to The Resilience Collective!

If you’re interested in mental health, wellbeing, employee engagement and basically being a kind and compassionate human, you’ll love this!

Amantha King and I have joined forces to create some awesome resources for you to use, and in this episode, we explain what they’re all about.

We are bridging the gap between knowing ‘I should be doing something’ to support people, ‘what’ that could be, and ‘how’.

As a psychologist and a coach, we have pooled our knowledge, skills, tools and findings from our work, to create a collective that will REALLY make a difference. That includes:

recognition that no one approach fits all – professionals in this space need to know how to personalise support
knowing that people are generally time poor – resources need to be super user friendly
the value of replacing a clinical focus on mental health with a human-centred, action-orientated approach

The Resilience Collective is made up of 5 resources…

STRESS: The good, the bad and the ‘how’ to get the elephant out of the room
DEPRESSION & ANXIETY: Effective strategies for nurturing the black dog
ADDICTION: Unveiling the shadows to understand the complexity and provide support
SELF-HARM ‘DISORDERS’ & PHOBIAS: The suffering we don’t see – dispelling the myths and shaping helpful solutions
EDUCATION: Preparing the next generation for good mental health

We’re kicking off on Friday 13th (lucky for us!) with our stress resource, ready for Stress Awareness Day on 1st November.

Our belief is that currently action to support people to experience their best mental health isn’t good enough.

🗣️There’s lots of chat.

🖋️There is lots written about it.

💡There are some well-intended ‘solutions’.

📅And there are a few ‘events’ thrown in for good measure.

‼️ But we’re not seeing the impact‼️

If you think your workplace has got it right, we’d love to hear your story and the evidence.

Follow these resources at #theresiliencecollective.

And finally, schedule half an hour in your diary from 13th October to find out more about how you can take greater control of stress to improve workplace wellbeing.
