Welcome to the first episode of the Silver Linings Handbook podcast which features an interview with mental health coach, Jayson Blair, conducted by his colleague, Grace Cooper. Jayson shares his personal struggles with addiction and bipolar disorder, and how these experiences led him to become a mental health coach and start Goose Creek Consulting. He emphasizes the importance of addressing mental health issues in the workplace and advocates for mental health awareness. Jayson and Grace also discuss the importance of leadership in the workplace, and how effective leadership involves taking care of followers and understanding how one's behavior impacts others. They preview upcoming topics for the podcast, which will explore topics related to psychology in the workplace.“I think one of the mistakes people make is thinking that leadership is about ambition, is about drive, is about accumulating power, when it's really about bringing followers along and I think the real way to bring followers along is to really take care of them.” - Jayson BlairLearn more by visiting our website and follow along with us on Instagram.
