2020 has been a different kind of year to say the least. COVID. Racism. Murder hornets (whatever happened to them?). Politics.

As a mental health speaker that focuses on the inclusion of all, I’ve been working hard this year to pivot my work to provide the resources that employers and people need in the middle of the trauma we’re experiencing.

The number of people struggling with anxiety and depression has skyrocketed in 2020. There are many unknowns for the future and it feels like there is tension every way you turn. My brand is all about “helping people receive the gift of emotional wellness”.

So, in this video I’m sharing some of things that the Mike Veny brand has been up to this year and some of the resources that I hope you’ll take advantage of.

In short, this video will show you how the Mike Veny brand is committed to YOU in 2020.

Today I’m going to share some thoughts on what your workplace needs to do for employee mental wellness when reopening during the pandemic.

In fact, in this video, I’m going to break down some of the biggest concerns that companies are facing with employee mental health as they reopen and some of the most important things to consider.

With that, here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:

When it comes to workplace mental health and emotional wellness right now, people are all across the spectrum. People struggled pre-coronavirus and now there are even more mental health challenges facing the workforce.

Everyone has experienced trauma at this point and there are different levels of anxiety. Some people believe everyone should be wearing face masks. Others believe it’s unnecessary. Some are ready for the world to reopen and others think we need to be waiting longer.

Here’s the thing—there is no right or wrong in this situation. We’re all figuring it out as we go. People have experienced loss. Loss of loved ones, income, social life, and being in the world. Everyone has a unique situation. Keeping this in mind can make all the difference as you have conversations with those around you.

And companies have the opportunity to move forward while creating a culture that supports employees. One way to do this is by focusing on workplace mental health and wellness.

In short, this video will show you actionable ways to support your employees during the reopening phase in 2020.

Today you’re going to get a behind the scenes look at me working with my speaking coach, Paul Kreiter, to work on the conclusion of my mental health keynote presentation.

In fact, in this video, you’ll hear the exact advice that he gives me on how to finish my mental health keynote presentations in a powerful way to leave my audience feeling inspired.

With that, here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:

The conclusion of my mental health presentations has always been a bit of a struggle for me. I want to leave my audience inspired and motivated to take action.

After hearing a typical way that I would conclude a presentation, Paul shares some valuable public speaking tips. He references the book that I wrote Transforming Stigma: How to Become a Mental Wellness Superhero and how I can draw on that messaging to create a powerful conclusion.

He also addresses the different types of conclusions that you can use based on your audience and their expectations for the presentation. Knowing this helps you find the perfect combination of ingredients to end your presentation strong.

As you’ll see, this is the first time I’ve been really excited about the conclusion of my presentations.

In short, this video will show you actionable ways to improve your presentation skills to deliver a powerful conclusion to your presentations in 2020.
