🌟 Mental Health is a Journey, Not a Destination 🌟 In this snippet from the latest Lead with Courage podcast episode, Cooper Chapman shares a powerful analogy for mental health: it’s like a treadmill. While we may strive for the carrot of “perfect mental health,” life has a way of pulling us back toward mental illness if we don’t take consistent action. Cooper challenges us to shift from mental health awareness to mental health action by asking ourselves: ✅ What small, daily steps can I take to stay on the treadmill and move forward? ✅ How can I make mental health maintenance a regular part of my life? It’s not about perfection; it’s about persistence. 💪 🎙️ Listen, and get inspired to take action: 👉 Listen here: https://lnkd.in/gvVbPwP6 💬 What’s one action you take daily to care for your mental health? Let us know below! 👇 Cherie Canning #leadershipskills #neverstoplearning #leadersarereaders #professionaldevelopment #leadership #LeadwithCouragePodcast #LeadershipPodcast #PodcastRelease #growthmindset

Transcript

Mental health is in a destination. It's a journey. And I say to people like imagine you've got a treadmill with perfect mental health up there. You know the end of the treadmill like the carrot dangling and mental illness is when you fall off the back of the treadmill. You can never get to the OR you might Sprint to the top of the treadmill, but guess what? Life's going to slowly start to bring you back towards mental illness. It's not about having a really good mental healthcare plan for a month and then going sweet, I'm good. I'll wait till I get back to the back and then run to the top again. Not at all. It's about what are the things that I'm doing every single day. To take a step or two against that metaphorical treadmill. And that's what I really think mental health action is. What are the daily things that we're doing to step against that treadmill? Mental health awareness, I think is showing that, hey, once you fall off the treadmill, here's all the incredible things that you can do, that you can reach out to the resources that we have. But I really think it's important that we start to educate people and the different things that you can do, but more importantly, inspire them to take those actions so that we see less people ending up off that back of the treadmill.
