Have you ever felt alone in a group of people? Have you ever been shunned by work colleagues? Today we are going to explore what it’s like to be "Alone Together," and we are joined by Professor Kayla Follmer of West Virginia University, an expert in occupational health psychology. Our discussion will navigate the often-misunderstood paths of isolation at work —both intentional and unintentional—and their profound impact on suicide risk. Many of us have lived through the painful experiences of workplace shunning and exclusion, but might not have connected the dots on how these experiences can contribute to feelings of thwarted belonging. Join us as we unpack the complexities of isolation, discuss preventative strategies, and consider how each of us can contribute to a more inclusive and supportive society. Whether you’re someone who has felt on the outside, or you're a workplace leader seeking insights into better understanding how to decrease loneliness and isolation at work, this conversation aims to offer understanding and hope.For more information on this episode go to https://www.sallyspencerthomas.com/headspace/alone-together-unraveling-the-ties-between-isolation-and-suicide-with-dr-kayla-follmer-ep-39
