How To Help Someone In Their Darkest Moments Graeme Cowan S2E17

In this episode of Unstoppable, I had the opportunity to speak with Graeme Cowan, Board Director of R U OK? and the host of The Caring CEO podcast. Graeme is a speaker, author and resilience expert and specialises in preventing and treating work related fatigue, stress and poor innovation. In his earlier career he worked in senior leadership positions with Johnson & Johnson, Pfizer, and AT Kearney. In 2000 he went through a 5-year episode of depression that his psychiatrist described as the worst he had ever treated, yet he is here today, inspiring thousands and helping many people along the way. In this podcast, Graeme and I discuss the stigma of mental health in the workplace, how to train your resilience and grit, and lastly advice on how to best support someone to get through a dark place in their life. This was a powerful conversation that I think many of you will benefit from especially if you know someone right now who needs support during this time.
