Voices from Leadership & Practice
The Corporate world can be harsh because everyone has the potential to be replaced. Corporate leaders focus on the bottom line. 'Worker bees' are focused on day-to-day work, so they don't have a strong appreciation for the final end goal...$$$. This can be emotionally challenging when metrics are not hit. Understanding that impact is critical to survive in a tough, competitive environment. Having an outlet to talk that through with other professionals is extremely helpful. Unfortunately, corporate leaders don't focus on emotions, they focus on numbers. But that doesn't discount the fact that stressful jobs can be emotional. Having a professional space, a safe space where others understand the emotions that contribute to daily work life is important. Be open and honest with yourself, and not taking it personally can ease your professional path forward.

We all need mental health support from time to time whether it's for anxiety in preparing to perform onstage or dealing with time constraint pressures or trying to navigate professionally while grieving. The support can be as simple as a lucky coin that an artist had to feel in his pocket before he could go onstage to just a warm hug, but the solace offered by Moodspace Method curates the safe haven where peace of mind and soul can be revived and refreshed daily. We all need that special space to operate at our best level and will forever cherish this attention to details of mood management.

My line of work within the Defense Department has its own stressors. Everything we do supports men and women on the front lines of the US Air Force, whether that is aircrew, maintenance, mission planning, airlift or dropping supplies. I've had multiple employees and former employees come to me for advice, mentoring, and sometimes just someone to listen. I care about the mental health of my employees and those in their household. We focus on "work life balance" and many seem to think it has to be fifty-fifty. I disagree. Work Life balance is just that, it's a balance, and changes day to day, week to week and month to month. My 100% today might not seem the same as my 100% tomorrow. We must give our employees and workforce permission to have an off day, we all have them.

In Their Words: Navigating Mental Health
Work isn’t just where I earn a living—it’s where I bring my lived experience and vision into shared purpose. So when I have been met with harassment, retaliation, and a hostile environment, the harm has pierced every part of me—mentally, emotionally, and physically.
My nervous system began to collapse under the pressure: migraines returned daily, I dissociated during meetings, and I struggled to eat, sleep, or care for my infant while pretending I was “okay” enough to function.
A platform like Moodspace Method could have offered what my workplace withheld: a space to name what was happening in real time, without needing to justify my pain or translate it into productivity. It could have helped me track my emotional deterioration before it became medical—and reminded me that my reality was valid, even when others denied it.
A simple prompt like “What’s hurting right now that no one can see?” or a reflection tool asking “What are you being asked to carry alone?” might have broken the isolation. Moodspace could be a lifeline—especially for those who can’t leave, but are silently unraveling.
Emotional safety in the workplace means being able to speak the truth without fear of punishment, isolation, or retaliation.
It means knowing that your body’s signals are not inconvenient, but informative.
Mental wellness isn’t a perk—it’s a baseline. It requires policies that protect, leadership that listens, and cultures that don’t equate silence with strength. When the workplace becomes a place of harm, recovery becomes resistance.

Hospital shifts are long and often extremely grueling. Although staff rarely get breaks, we often take our brief respite in break rooms that are cluttered and certainly not very restful spots. This often is our only time to mentally decompress and recenter from whatever has been occurring during a shift, and it’s not always the easiest thing to do in that kind of environment. Having a peaceful and relaxing place to reset and recenter not only is beneficial for staff, but by extension, the countless patients and their families in our care.

There is no disputing the relationship between good mental health and good physical health and good mental health begins where we spend most of our time, at home. The feeling of comfort, safety and serenity is sought after by all creatures be it through conscious effort or instinct. Weather it’s stress from work, finances or just everyday life, knowing you have your personally designed sanctuary to come home to is a relief. Be it relaxing in cool water on a hot day or wrapped in a warm blanket on a cold night, a Moodspace designed room will embrace your soul.

The workplace can be a stressful and exhausting environment especially for someone struggling with mental health. Some days you feel on top of the world and the next you hit rock bottom. Whether it is a good day or a bad day having a support system at work is extremely important. Having someone recognize your mental struggles can make such a difference in so many ways. Mental illness is real and can happen to anyone so why wouldn’t we want to be accommodating in one of the most stressful places. Be heard! You are not alone! You are valid!
