I definitely became like very jaded and I think, yeah, you're right, less understanding of people's situation, because it was like, oh, I'm hearing the same thing over and over.
Ever felt trapped in a job that drains your soul? In this compelling episode of 'Our Beautiful Minds', host V Babida sits down with musician Bess Hepner to tackle the thorny issue of toxic workplaces and their toll on mental health. Drawing from their own experiences—V as a social worker and Bess from her time in the service industry—they paint a vivid picture of the emotional and psychological fallout from staying in harmful work environments.
They don't just stop at identifying the problem; they dig into the tough process of leaving such jobs and the often-overlooked decompression period that follows. It's a raw, honest conversation that might just make you feel seen if you're grappling with similar issues. But it's not all doom and gloom. Bess also shares how she uses her music to support bail bonds, offering a glimmer of hope and a reminder that positive change is possible.
The episode is peppered with practical advice, including tips on vetting therapists and the crucial role of sleep in maintaining mental health. If you've ever felt the weight of a toxic workplace or know someone who has, this episode is a must-listen. It’s not just about airing grievances; it’s about finding ways to heal and move forward. Tune in for an eye-opening chat that blends personal stories with actionable insights.
