#028 Karen Oldham-Waring - Sunflower Training and Consultancy

KernowKast

Back to our regular broadcast!

This week on the show my guest is Karen Oldham-Waring who runs Sunflower Training and Consultancy which she set up three years ago to helps businesses get the most out of the staff by really considering the mental health of their employees.

She contacted me wanting to discuss Men's Health Week which runs from the 11th to the 17th of June and this conversation is great. We talk about how businesses should consider the mental health of their employees and how to mitigate problems. How and why people seem to be suffering more with depression and anxiety more today than in the past and loads of other topics relating to mental health for men and women.
