If Carlsberg did full circle moments, it would probably go something like this… ⭕️
After starting out working in the brewing industry where I initially became unwell, I stepped back both personally and professionally to recover and rebuild what is now a diverse career in mental health.
Yesterday at Beer X, I spoke about ‘Head Retention - Mental Well-Being in Brewing’, looking at how the wrong cultural ingredients can contribute to mental health difficulties within independent brewery settings.
It is never about blaming an industry, but understanding how things can quietly build and boil over, especially in small teams under numerous pressures.
The best part? The honesty in the room throughout when addressing this taboo and the inspiring conversations that followed.
This was both an emotional and personal one for me, and I am Incredibly grateful to be a part of making positive change within the industry.
Thank you for having me and here’s to keeping a Level Head.🍺
