"It’s okay to not be okay, as long as you’re talking to someone who cares." This is a reminder from today’s inspiring conversation with Kathy. Meet Our Guest: Kathy Kathy is a dynamic and inspiring advocate for mental health, inclusion, and workplace well-being. With a remarkable background as a former tech entrepreneur, Kathy co-owned a successful global tech company, which she exited a few years ago to focus on her passion for helping others. Drawing from her lived experiences, Kathy has dedicated herself to promoting open conversations about mental health, suicide prevention, domestic violence, and LGBTQ inclusion. She recently founded Workplace Village, an innovative program that fosters well-being in professional environments. The program addresses critical topics such as menopause, mental health, and diversity, equipping organizations to support their employees effectively. Kathy is also the creator of the podcast Raised by an Invisible Village, where she reflects on her journey and pays tribute to the individuals and moments that shaped her life. Having spent her early years in foster care from the age of 12, Kathy fondly recalls the support and love of her foster family, which provided her with a sense of stability during a challenging time. Her resilience was further tested by traumatic experiences, including sexual violence, which she has courageously transformed into a source of strength and advocacy. In her pursuit of healing and connection, Kathy undertook a transformative journey across Australia, reconnecting with people who impacted her life and expressing gratitude for their support. As a leader and mentor, her empathetic approach is informed by her challenges, and she continues to inspire others through her advocacy work. An ambassador for R U OK? Kathy is committed to raising awareness about mental health and suicide prevention. She also actively encourages workplaces to embrace uncomfortable but necessary conversations about inclusion, well-being, and support. Kathy’s story is a powerful testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the profound impact of connection, gratitude, and giving back.
