IN THIS EPISODE:

I speak with friend and colleague Anne Archer about her most recent work in the mental health field and keys to maintaining mental health, including:

· The necessity of understanding the whole person and the interrelatedness of mental, emotional and physical health

· How we can use the 5 Fundamental Building Blocks of Mental Health to maintain a healthy mental state.

· How to manage the drains and negative impacts that can reduce our mental health capacity

· The impact of COVID and working virtually over the long term

· As well as the power of listening in being able to help others with their mental health and wellness.

Anne has a lot of really valuable insights that can help you, a co-worker or perhaps someone you love and I’m excited for her to be able to share them with you today.
