Adam Grant on Mental Health
This episode really opened my eyes to the sensitivity everyone should have to the mental health needs of those around us and for ourselves. Adam Grant delves into mental illness and wellness, focusing on the workplace and provides us with many perspectives. He begins by interviewing Demar DeRozan, an NBA player who just signed a lucrative contract with the Bulls, and who kept his mental health challenges a secret until he didn’t. By going public, he ultimately helped countless others seek out the help they needed to move forward, and also prompted employers to be more sensitive to their workers’ mental health. Grant is the ultimate professor as he delivers the outcome of thorough academic research in layman's terms interspersed with great interviews.
