Welcome to Proper Mental episode 64 with Andy Chambers, the founder of Born Human, a holistic mental health consultancy that is working to improve paternal mental health in the workplace.
Andy has personally experienced the impact of Post Natal Depression and has a background in the corporate environment and these combined helped him to realise that there is more needed to be done to support parents and their mental health at work.
Andy and the team at Born Human help parents to be prepared and keep mentally fit to be productive at home and work with the aim of tackling issues proactively, before they become a reality.
The podcast of the same name hosts a series of down to earth conversations with inspiring individuals, who have faced the challenges of parenthood in all its forms.
In this episode, Andy and I chat about the power of shared experience and the importance of open and honest conversations. We also chat about being parents and the challenges of modern-day parenting and how this can impact mental health.
Andy and I also chat about supporting a loved one through a period of mental ill health which is a real stand out podcasting moment for me which I think you’ll find incredibly moving.
