Season 2, Episode 8

Shayne Taylor, Corporate Director of HSE at The Gisborne Group, joins Karen and guest co-host, Trevor Botkin, to talk about his personal experiences with mental health and substance use.

 

Uniquely, Shayne’s adulthood career path fluctuated between the construction trades and psychological care supports in mental health and substance use services, while his own binge drinking, substance use and associated harms carried on for decades. Shayne’s experiences in these two radically different fields ultimately led him to safety work in construction where he’s now a strong advocate for meeting regular people where they’re at, opening the door to a better quality of life through human connection.

**This episode contains mention of childhood sexual abuse, explicit drug use, and description of an overdose experience.
