Mental Health in the Workplace: How to Work Without Losing Your Mind
Date: Wednesday 1st November
Venue: Two Ducks
Time: 7.00pm for shopping & 7.30pm for start of workshop
If your job or career has ever negatively impacted your mental health, then this is a must-attend workshop for you.
Cate Sevilla is a local, published author and full-time working mum. This workshop will look into the five big lessons from her book ‘How To Work Without Losing Your Mind’, including:
Practical strategies for managing mental health at work
Why it’s so important to have difficult conversations, even if it's awkward
What’s in our control/not in out control
Dealing with health crises at work (e.g. miscarriage/perimenopause/major illness etc)
Cate is the Editor-in-Chief of HuffPost UK and has managed editorial teams for some of the world’s largest media and tech companies, including Google and Microsoft, and BuzzFeed UK. Her writing has appeared in The Independent, iNews, The Big Issue, Insider and Grazia Magazine. Born in California, Cate moved to London when she was 20 to be with a British man she met on MySpace – 17 years later, they’re still together, happily married and live in Surrey with their dog, Barbara, and their beautiful son.
This workshop is primarily aimed at those in office/desk-based jobs but many of its insights will apply to anyone in employment – or self-employment!
Cate will talk about her career and how it led her to write her book, share her five key points from her book, and present a reading from the book before opening up for a Q&A.
