Startup in Estonia is a podcast where we discuss different pillars of a successful startup ecosystem by showcasing examples from Estonia. In the third season, we are looking into how to build a successful startup.

In the fifth episode, we talk about how to support the mental health of you and your team. For the first time in this series, we had the pleasure of bringing in two guests from a startup that's widely known for setting a great emphasis on supporting the well-being and mental health of their employees - Pipedrive. You can hear from their senior People & Culture Manager Leelia Rohumaa and Personal Coach Jorgen Matsi

Tune in for a very well-rounded overview of addressing mental health topics in any working group or company. A good starting point that is stressed in the episode is that everyone's case is different and there is no universal situation for addressing the matter. However, Jorgen and Leelia do a great job of laying out a framework for finding the best solution for these kind of situations. They share their views on how to make vacations and rest have the desired outcome, when to seek and what to look out for in professional help as well as how over-achieve and make no excuses while taking care of one's mental health.
