Rob Stephenson used to run his own financial services recruitment company, Maven, but is now a full time mental health campaigner, CEO and entrepreneur.
His mission is to smash the stigma around mental health, which he's doing through several different fantastic projects.
I felt really inspired in this conversation by his vulnerability - everyday he posts his wellbeing score out ten and what's contributing to that. It's evolved into a tool called FormScore that improves mental health in our workplaces and communities by means of self reflection and support for one another.
He set up Inside Out, a list of business leaders who are willing to talk about mental health and he consults with organisations to help them create healthy workplace cultures.
He's also Chief Catalysts at BetterSpace, a platform that helps people find what is most likely to help their mental health with a live database of interventions that improve one’s state of mind, from exercise clubs to mindfulness apps to life coaches.
We talk about his experience of bipolar, depression, anxiety and attempting suicide, what he does to improve his own wellbeing and what leaders can do to champion mental health.
