The Connection Between Financial Health and Mental Health The Finance Cafe

    • Entrepreneurship

In this episode Shannon will sit down with Tara Adams, Founder of Abridge Consulting and Workplace Mental Health Specialist to discuss how our financial wellness and mental health are connected, why it’s so difficult to talk about money, why financial stress is found to be higher in women than men, what mental wellness warning signs to look out for & tips for building financial wellness as an entrepreneur.

Tara founded Abridge Consulting based on a simple, but not easy, goal - to get more people, more help, sooner. Tara believes we can all learn how to be a bridge between people struggling with their mental health and getting them the support they need and deserve. Abridge Consulting clients are organizations and teams who are ready to invest in their people, culture, and bottom line.

​​

With a strong background in learning and facilitation and a passion for workplace mental health, Tara spent several years as a Corporate Wellness Manager. During that time, she championed workplace mental health and overall employee total health for 6,000 employees by building enterprise-wide strategies for mental, physical, emotional, and financial wellness. The results of her workplace mental health training program were closely measured and outperformed similar organizations across Canada positioning her as an industry leader in workplace mental health.



Tara calls herself a “relatable” role model who does the best she can to invest in her own mental, physical and sleep health but like most of us, she knows she can always do more. She’s a busy working mom of two, a previous semi-competitive tennis player and has big plans to conquer the amateur senior’s tennis tour someday.
