As May was Mental Health Awareness Month, here at Madewell we couldn’t think of a better way to promote the month than some organized exercise as a crew! We know that our mental health is heavily impacted by our physical well-being, and the J.P. Morgan Corporate Challenge 3.5-mile race was just what the doctor ordered! Last week, we had over 100 associates join across our organization to run or walk the course through Central Park in matching shirts designed by our very own Elie R., Anni M., Danielle Evangelista. We turned up the stakes a bit with some healthy team competitions, celebrated each other crossing the finish line, and had the opportunity to gather together in post-race celebrations. We look forward to continuing our focus on our mental and physical health year-round and already can’t wait for next year's race! #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth #JPMCC #Madewell #GlobalRunningDay

September ushers in Self-Care Awareness Month, offering a timely reminder to extend the same compassion to ourselves that we so readily offer to others. Caring for ourselves is not a luxury but an essential necessity. As Katie Reed beautifully said, 'Self-care is giving the world the best of you, instead of what’s left of you.' By prioritizing our mental, emotional, and physical well-being, we empower ourselves to face life’s challenges with strength and grace. In nurturing ourselves, we foster resilience and set a profound example of self-compassion for those around us. Let this month inspire a lifelong commitment to self-care—for today, tomorrow, and every day that follows. #selfcareawarenessmonth #breathe #maketimetounwind #compassionforself #TakeCareOfYourself

💚 On this Mental Health Awareness Week, I'm compelled to reflect on the impactful advertisement that resonated deeply with me: the Norwich City Football Club's ad for The Samaritans on #mentalhealthday last year. This subject holds immense significance for me personally, touching the core of human empathy and understanding. The ad stands as a testament to the power of simplicity in conveying a crucial message about the human experience: Individuals wrestling with internal battles frequently conceal their anguish beneath a veneer of normality. It serves as a stark reminder of the importance of empathy and compassion in our interactions with others. In a world where appearances can deceive, this ad serves as a call to action, urging us to look beyond the surface and extend our support to those who may be silently battling their demons. It captures the core values of unity and comprehension on the path to mental wellness. As we navigate the complexities of mental health, let us draw inspiration from this powerful work of art and commit ourselves to fostering a culture of empathy, acceptance, and support. Together, let's endeavour to build a world where silence is not a burden anyone bears alone, and where empathy serves as our guiding principle. 💚 #mentalhealth #checkin #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthawarenessweek #bekind #YouAreNotAlone #wellness #empathy

It’s Mental Health Awareness Week. Mental health, and health in general, is so much more important than work. Sometimes we get caught up in the small problems we try to solve at work and forget about taking care of ourselves. Sometimes we take the problems from work back home and struggle to “switch-off”. Sometimes, everything is just too much. Sometimes we’d like to talk about our inner struggles, but are afraid to open up. And none of this is necessarily visible to others. See here (trigger warning): https://lnkd.in/dVAxnUzi I’m personally still struggling to gauge how much the corporate world can really do for their employees in this regard. At WorkMotion, we try our best to foster a culture of openly addressing concerns, stress, and struggles. But we’re far from perfect. We’ve also tried out several mental health offerings as benefits for our employees, but none of them seemed to be ideal. My realisation is that mental health is not one-size-fits-all. That’s why we’re now extending our L&D (Learning & Development) budget to a L&D&W (Learning & Development & mental Wellbeing) budget. Our employees get their own budget to decide what they need and what helps them most. Personally, I believe the key remains in raising awareness and removing stigmas about this topic. We’re all vulnerable.🌱 #MentalHealth #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth

💔 I lost a former colleague a couple days ago to a long battle with mental illness, so this video that's been making the rounds hit me hard when I saw it last night. LMK below what you're doing to better support men and boys through mental health challenges. 💡Over a decade ago when I was attending Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency leadership training, I was trying to convince the other attendees (all men, save for one other woman) of the importance of getting to know those in your office personally. In the regulatory compliance industry, there was a pervasive need for everyone to appear "right" and not reveal any vulnerabilities. So many of these leaders-in-training were understandably all business. But I told them about the time I turned on a local news segment about mental health, and saw this guy I'd worked with every day, and grabbed a beer with on occasion, talk about his recent suicide attempt. It didn't feel good. His work suffered, but I'm not sure any of us knew the extent to which he was struggling. It would have felt much better to do the messy work of asking what was going on and encourage him to get help, and it probably would have made things go more smoothly at work for him as well. Some of them were moved by that story, some of them were still not convinced. I'm willing to bet all of them had been conditioned to see mental health as something separate and apart from physical health, something one should struggle through privately, and something that should stay out of the workplace. Sorry folks, it shows up at work anyway. Regardless of your industry or role, you're in the business of managing people, not just products and services. You certainly shouldn't try to diagnose your colleagues or solve problems for them, but you could definitely ask how things are going and remind them of your EAP or other resources should they ever want help. As we finish up mental health awareness month, now might be a good time for that reminder. Mental health is health. Asking your coworkers if they know a good therapist should be as simple and shameless as asking if they know a good allergist or pediatrician. How can you make that true in your workplace? https://lnkd.in/gHA_yPSz
