Ep 138Ep#138 - Erik Locke: Leading by Example (Brick by Brick #25)
EMental health remains a pressing issue across industries, but the construction industry stands out in an alarming way. 77% of employees say that they experience burnout at their current job. At best, this means increased sick days and reduced productivity in companies. At worst, this means an increased risk of suicide, with the construction industry having a suicide rate 4.5 times higher than the general public. This is unacceptable. The construction industry and the trades experience uniquely challenging work conditions such as long hours, job uncertainty, and harsh working environments. This takes a toll on both the mental and physical health of employees, and often leads to unhealthy coping strategies, such as abusing alcohol and drugs to cope with stress. As men, it's often difficult to admit when we need to take a break, and even more difficult to admit when we need support. I've found that having candid conversations goes a long, long way, and I've seen first hand the change that comes from it on more occasions than I can count.It takes courage to admit that you're struggling, and it opens up a space for others to do the same. Research shows that companies who invest in effective mental health solutions receive $2.18 for every dollar spent. We need to support our blue collar workers.Those who literally build the foundation for our nation. Together we can facilitate change and save lives, one conversation at time.Erik Locke is the Chief Executive Officer at Incolink....Thanks for listening!

EWe live in an era where technology has connected us in more ways than ever before, yet the human connection, the one that truly matters, often eludes us.

Ep 132#132 - Lauren Barirani: Striking Balance
EThe balance between ambition and being present is a delicate dance that many individuals find themselves navigating in today's fast-paced world. Ambition drives us to set goals, achieve milestones, and reach for new heights, which is undoubtedly a valuable trait. However, the pursuit of ambition can sometimes lead to a state of perpetual striving, where the focus shifts to the future and the next achievement, leaving the present moment neglected.Being present, on the other hand, involves immersing oneself in the here and now, fully engaging with the current experience. It's about savoring life's small moments, cultivating mindfulness, and finding contentment in the present circumstances. The challenge arises when these two seemingly opposing forces intersect.Striking a balance between ambition and being present requires a mindful approach. It's about recognizing that while ambition propels us forward, the journey itself is equally valuable. Being present doesn't mean giving up on goals; rather, it involves infusing intention and awareness into each step taken towards those goals.Mindful ambition involves setting objectives, working diligently towards them, and yet maintaining an awareness of the present moment. It's finding joy in the process and celebrating progress along the way. This balance prevents burnout, nurtures mental well-being, and fosters a sense of fulfillment.Ultimately, embracing both ambition and presence allows for a more holistic and enriched life. By intertwining these two aspects, individuals can pursue their ambitions with vigor while also cultivating a deeper connection to the richness of life as it unfolds in each moment.Today’s guest discusses strategies in finding such a balance. Lauren Barirani is a registered clinical counsellor with experience working with children, youth, and adults. She is the founder of Apricott Wellness.

Ep 131#131 - Eleni Prontzos & Bryn Swayze: Financial Wellbeing
EThe relationship between financial wellbeing and mental health is a delicate balance that profoundly impacts our lives. Financial struggles can cast shadows of stress and anxiety, while stability can lift our mindset with a sense of security. This connection is not one-sided. Just as financial challenges can harm mental health, mental health issues can lead to financial missteps, creating a cycle. Roughly 46 percent of people with debt also have a mental health diagnosis - it is clear we need to do more. The key lies in embracing a holistic approach that nurtures both aspects. Seeking help for mental health is wise, just as consulting a financial advisor is for money management. True financial wellbeing involves living within your means, setting achievable goals, and understanding that happiness isn't solely tied to wealth.The intertwining of financial wellbeing and mental health is a crucial aspect of our lives. By tending to both, we can create a balance that resonates with our sense of purpose and builds resilience. It's about empowering yourself to navigate challenges while taking care of your wellbeing beyond monetary measures.Today’s guests, Eleni Prontzos and Bryn Swayze are focused on helping bridge the gap between financial and mental health.

EThere are endless issues surrounding mental health in companies.When comparing industry rates of mental illness, the construction industry sticks out like a sore thumb. 77% of employees say they have experienced burnout in their current job. At best, mental health issues lead to more sick days and reduce company productivity. At worst, it can lead an increased risk of suicide with the construction industry having a suicide rate 4.5 times higher than the general public. This needs to change.

Ep 129#129 - Mike Cameron: Emotionally Connected Men
EWe've been conditioned to believe that strength is all about suppressing emotions, staying stoic, and never showing vulnerability. But what if we challenge that belief and offer a new perspective, giving people, especially men, permission to feel. Emotion plays a significant role in how we connect with others, how we lead, and how we make choices.We live in a society that sometimes overemphasizes certain traits based on gender. But true strength, as brilliantly put by Dr. Brene Brown, is the perfect combination of tough and tender. It's about being courageous enough to embrace vulnerability and connect with our emotions. That's what makes us truly powerful.The following was derived from a TED talk delivered by my next guest, Mike Cameron. Mike has traveled across North America, delivering his powerful message on giving people, especially men, permission to feel. With over two decades of studying the impact of emotions on human behavior, he's a business leader and a sales professional who knows how crucial it is to connect with our feelings.Mike's journey led him to study the works of experts like Dr. Antonio Demasio, Dr. Travis Bradbury, Dan Goman, and the renowned Dr. Brene Brown, just to name a few. He learned that emotions play a vital role in how we make decisions and connect with one another, both personally and professionally.But Mike's journey took a tragic turn when he faced the unimaginable loss of his girlfriend, Colleen. In the face of such adversity, he discovered that true strength lies not in suppressing emotions but in embracing vulnerability and learning from our feelings.Mike urges us to redefine what it means to be a badass, to dismantle the outdated stereotypes, and give ourselves permission to feel and be courageous enough to face our emotions head-on.You can learn more about Mike here: https://mikecameron.ca/...

Ep 110#110 - Shaun Randall: Life Only Makes Sense Backwards
E“You can’t find what you are looking for, by searching for it. What you seek cannot be found. Peace is unfounded. Grounded in letting go. The flow, falling softly like snow. What does it taste like? Now use your imagination. You can create anything you want. That moment in time. It cannot be unfounded.”This is a quote from my next guest, Shaun Randall. I really loved this chat and connected with Shaun on many levels. He is authentic and has followed his own path by practicing the art of listening to his deepest self. Shaun's story really encompasses one of my favourite quotes 'Life only makes sense backwards, but must be lived forwards'...I felt this was a fitting name for the episode. Shaun Randall, is the author of Words Like Wine, A Peace of My Mind, Letters From Lima, and THE MANIFESTATION METHOD. His metaphysical poetry and novels take readers on a journey inside worlds they never knew existed to uncover truth and discover themselves all over again.You can find more about Shaun (including his books) here: https://www.shaun-randall.com/...Thanks for listening!

This led him to completely immerse himself in how people end up in emotional pain and how it’s possible for anyone to be free from it.This led him to opening The Centre for Healing (Formerly The Melbourne Centre of Healing), to help people who have found themselves in the pain he once was.
