Before It Breaks – Episode 4: The Connection Gap
We’ve never been more connected – and never felt more disconnected.
It’s Mental Health Week, and the theme is “Come Together, Canada”. This raises a question – if we’re already “together” at work, why do so many people still feel alone?
In many workplaces, we have more meetings, more check-ins, and more “wellness initiatives” than ever before… and yet, connection is still missing.
One of the reasons is because proximity isn’t the same as connection. In our latest episode of Before It Breaks – The Connection Gap – CEO Carrie Bjola explores:
- Why surface-level connection doesn’t land
- What leaders might be getting wrong
- And what real connection actually looks like in a workplace
Sometimes, when you’re at your lowest you might not feel like you have someone you can talk to. So where do you go?
Carrie also sits down with the Online Therapy Unit from the University of Regina to talk about how:
- Digital therapy can provide a private, meaningful first step toward connection
- Online tools can help bridge The Connection gap
- People can connect — even when no one else is in the room
Because for some people, the bravest form of “coming together” is reaching out quietly.
