Mental health is not so common a topic inside the workplace. However, recent events hit all of us too hard that the call for a more mindful work environment is more than necessary.

In this week's episode, we are joined by Donovan Dreyer. Donovan is a coach and speaker in Get Ready Coaching. He was initially aspiring to be a pilot but realized that it isn't what he is passionate about. The tragedy of the Columbine shooting showed him his purpose. He wanted to deep dive and understand why teens think the way they do. Studies show that a lot of teens are suicidal and that many parents need professional help in dealing with them.

The ages 17 to 18 years old is a very crucial stage in their lives. Teens at this stage need help in figuring out their dreams, what they really want to be. Therefore, a strong support system is needed to help them get clarity on what they really want. Failing to provide such a support system can cause a midlife crisis wherein adults find it hard to pivot and make changes. They end up in the wrong spot, making them stuck in a situation that they do not want.

Donovan was able to formulate the Spotlight analogy when he was triggered by a number of teen suicides that happen in a school that he previously worked with. He believes that when there is a universal language for mental health, we can easily understand what the children's condition is and how to deal with them. He used the colors green, yellow and red to note different mental health statuses and needs.

Tune in to today's episode and understand how important it is to understand your spotlight, not only for your business but more importantly for your own mental health.
