38. Has Mental Health Become Too Normalised For GEN Z?

Welcome back to the Driven Young Podcast.Today is another episode all-around mental health for young people, how it is so prominent today and how we can deal with it.I am joined by Andrew Woodhead, a product manager currently working at batyr, a for-purpose preventative mental health organisation, created and driven by young people for young people. He is also the author of the beautifully illustrated short story book called LIGHT. The book explains how depression can take hold, what it feels like and presents proven strategies that anyone can try, learn and practice to improve their mental health.Woody and I have a great conversation all along this theme and dive deep into some stories I have heard about kids in school, how I think mental health has become way to normalized with young people to the point it can be detrimental and Woody shares his experiences and practical tips we can use to try help those around us.This is a super important topic, mental health is at an all-time high for our generation and it is crazy the stories I am hearing from boys and girls in high-school.As per usual, if you get any value from this episode or from the show please consider leaving a review it only takes you 2 minutes and really helps the show reach more people, let me know what you think of this episode and don’t hesitate to reach out to me on or Woody on Instagram.Follow Woody:Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-r-woodhead/Book: https://thefinchfoundation.com/Check out Byron on social media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drivenyoungpodcast/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ByronjDempseyByron Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/byron__dempsey/Tik Tok: https://vm.tiktok.com/J8a8hS3/JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUPSupport the show Hosted on Acast.
