Mental Health Awareness: Seeing, Supporting, Speaking Up | Pax8 - The Athena Rebels Podcast Episode 6

In this episode of Athena Rebels, we’re joined by Amy Brown, Manager of Partner Success, EMEA who shares her personal story and why mental health awareness in the workplace is no longer optional — it’s essential. Together, we explore how to recognise the signs that someone around us may be struggling, why so many people suffer in silence, and what genuine support can look like at work. Amy also talks about the role of a Mental Health First Aider — why this matters, what it really means in practice, and how having someone trained and trusted can make a powerful difference. This is an honest, compassionate conversation about responsibility, awareness, and creating workplaces where people feel seen, supported, and safe to speak up. Because mental health isn’t just a personal issue — it’s something we all need to be more aware of, more comfortable talking about, and more intentional in how we support one another.
