HEALING 101: What Mental Health at Work Really Takes with Laura Hearn
Hurt to Healing - En podkast av Pandora Morris
In this episode of Healing 101, I sit down with the remarkable Laura Hearn — a journalist, mental health advocate, and the founder of Flip It Works — to explore the critical role that vulnerability, storytelling, and humanity play in shaping healthier, more compassionate workplaces.
Today, she helps organisations create meaningful and lasting mental health initiatives through real human connection, not just policies and apps. We talk about the importance of leaders showing up as their full selves, the fear so many employees face in being seen as “defined by their diagnosis,” and the fine line between performative wellbeing and genuine support. Laura also shares powerful insights about navigating panic, grief, and how small acts of compassion — like simply asking someone what they need — can make a world of difference.
This episode is an honest reminder that the foundation of mental health in the workplace isn't about perfection or tick-boxes — it’s about empathy, listening, and above all, being human.
