The Hidden Cost of Silence: Mental Health, Resilience & Leadership at Work | Melissa Doman

from The Simba Mindset

We talk endlessly about performance and productivity at work, but rarely about the mental health of the people actually doing the work. What happens when resilience becomes a cover for emotional suppression? And what does workplace silence really cost us?In this episode of The Simba Mindset, I sit down with Melissa Doman organizational psychologist, former clinical therapist, and author of Yes, You Can Talk About Mental Health at Work and her latest book Cornered Office for one of the most honest conversations about workplace mental health you'll hear.We get into why most people have resilience completely wrong, why leaders are the most overlooked when it comes to psychological safety, and what it actually takes to build workplaces where people don't have to choose between being human and being professional.Learn more by visiting: https://www.thebodylanguagetraininginstitute.com/Take action and strengthen your mind with The Resilient Mind Journal.
