Mental health challenges usually don’t have one definite cause where we can point to and say, ‘that’s the issue.’ Rather, it’s likely to develop as a result of a combination of factors such as change, money, relationships, health, work, and life events (Every Mind Matters, 2020).
Whatever challenges you are facing, it is important to build the skills and support to help us deal with them. These include, strong support networks, positive sense of identity, being physically healthy, optimism, a positive attitude to support seeking, and access to support services.
It is okay to talk to someone about the issues you’re facing. The Mental Health for Founders program understands that individuals have challenges that they might be dealing with outside of work and supports all mental health challenges, not just work-related issues.
To support Founders checking in on how they are going, Advance Queensland is supporting 240 free confidential mental health consultations with CleverMinds Consulting.
Take this opportunity to meet with an objective and confidential health care professional, unpack and reflect what you have been through, where you are going and source tools to keep you going in your start-up journey!
Consultations will be during working hours from 9am to 5.30pm, Monday to Friday. You will have the choice of In-person or Virtual consultations at no cost to you.
