Welcome to The Mental Health Advantage—the podcast dedicated to transforming workplace mental health from reactive to proactive! I’m Stephen Sokoler, founder of Journey and author of The Mental Health Advantage. Building on insights from my book, this podcast dives deeper into proactive mental health care in the workplace—something I know so many of you are passionate about. Each episode, I sit down with top HR leaders, mental health experts, and industry innovators to explore how organizations can move beyond crisis management and build cultures that truly support well-being, engagement, and performance. We’ll break down the most pressing challenges, share actionable strategies, and highlight real-world success stories from companies leading the way.
