Returning from mental health leave means walking back into a room where everyone knows something happened but no one knows what to say. Jennifer Moffett, technology leader and suicide prevention advocate, joins Dr. Sally to share two things every manager needs: rebuild confidence before productivity, and support recovery without sacrificing dignity, trust, or accountability.
Gen Z employees are not disloyal. They are discerning. John Brown, therapist and former Apple and Stanford leader, joins Dr. Sally to explain why early-career high performers burn out when workplaces see only productivity, and what managers can do today to build the loyalty that actually makes teams run through walls.
Who would have thought construction would lead the way on workplace mental health? Not tech, not healthcare, not corporate America. Construction. Sonya Bohmann, Executive Director of the Construction Industry Alliance for Suicide Prevention, joins Dr. Sally to share two lessons every industry needs: move from awareness to action, and make mental health a 12-month-a-year conversation.
For every 1,000 construction workers who die on a job site, over 11,000 die from overdose. Narcan saves lives, but it only works after an overdose has already happened. Dr. Virna Little, co-founder of Zero Overdose, joins Dr. Sally to show workplaces how to prevent the event in the first place.
Veterans die by suicide at higher rates than the general population, and most are working at the time. Alicia Scovill, a veteran and construction workplace expert, joins Dr. Sally to unpack why visible performance isn't the same as wellbeing, and why veteran-friendly workplaces need systems, not slogans.
