As we wade through the waters of professional evolution and personal growth, Mel Doman joins us with a tale that transforms the way we think about mental health in the workplace. Stepping out from the traditional role of a clinical mental health therapist, Mel charts her foray into the world of organizational psychology—a move born from the conviction that the corporate environment is a breeding ground for addressing mental health proactively. Her frank discussion peels back layers of misconceptions surrounding psychologists and celebrates the authenticity that shapes her approach to change the workplace narrative on mental health.Throughout the episode, you'll walk alongside me as I unravel my own battles with mental wellbeing, highlighting the profound impact of sharing our true selves. From an intimate social media post that resonated with many to the birth of a book aimed at guiding others through the thicket of workplace mental health, the journey is a testament to the unexpected victories that can arise from vulnerability. Mel's story, accented with laughter and life's lighter moments, encourages us to find happiness in our own pivot stories—reminding us that sometimes, the greatest leaps lead to the most remarkable transformations. Share in the joy and hardships of embracing change, as we salute those who dare to take the road less traveled.GUEST BIO:Melissa Doman, MA is an Organizational Psychologist, Former Clinical Mental Health Therapist, & Author of Yes, You Can Talk About Mental Health at Work (Here’s Why And How To Do It Really Well).
