[90] - How can we "check-in" on our shift working colleagues?

Text me what you thought of the show 😊In the face of demanding shift work, can we safeguard our mental health and help others do the same? Let's explore that critical question together on this episode of A Healthy Shift podcast. As your host, Roger Sutherland—a certified nutritionist, veteran law enforcement officer, and shift worker for almost four decades—I'm ready to guide you through the tough reality of mental health struggles in the workplace.    We will take a deep look at the signs of a colleague in distress and how to make a difference through active listening. The conversation doesn't end there. We look into the role your diet and lifestyle play in your mental wellbeing, and the resources available to help you improve it. I'll share some useful tips on how to create a safe, non-judgmental space for discussing mental health. And remember, this isn't about one-time solutions; it's a journey we are on together. By the end of this episode, you'll have the tools needed to better support your colleagues and yourself. Let's make shift work a healthier place for everyone, one conversation at a time.Support the show----------------------------Roger Sutherland is Australia's Night Shift & Sleep Specialist and the founder of A Healthy Shift.After more than 40 years working rotating shifts with Victoria Police, Roger now helps organisations reduce fatigue risk, improve staff wellbeing and build healthier, safer and higher-performing 24/7 workplaces through evidence-based education, circadian biology and the Shift Work Champions™ Framework.Shift Work Champions™: https://join.ahealthyshift.com/shift-work-capabilityWebsite: https://ahealthyshift.com.auLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/roger-sutherlandInstagram: @a_healthy_shift___________________Disclaimer: Roger Sutherland is not a doctor or a medical professional.  Always consult a physician before implementing any strategies mentioned in this podcast.
