Eating Disorders in the Workplace

In this week's episode, Han is joined by Hailey Hechtman. Hailey is the Executive Director of Causeway, a non-profit organisation which helps people with mental illness and other challenges to find meaningful and rewarding work and to live more independently.

In this week's episode, we discuss:

  • Mental health in the workplace, and how this can be affected and supported.

  • How to navigate interviews and coming back to work following mental health difficulties.

  • What Causeway do, and how they support individuals in the workplace.

  • Hailey's personal experience of mental health issues and disordered eating.

  • Diet culture in the workplace and how these conversations can be navigated.

  • How to have a discussion around mental health with your employer, and how to create a safe and inclusive environment at work.
