Key Leadership Lessons from Joyce Marter’s Mental Health Playbook:

  • Self-worth drives net worth. Leaders who invest in their inner well-being make clearer decisions, set healthier boundaries, and create more stable cultures.

  • Burnout shows up quietly before it shows up loudly. Behavioral shifts, withdrawal, irritability, and inconsistent performance are early signals managers must take seriously.

  • Transparency builds trust. Sharing struggles appropriately—especially around money or stress—creates psychological safety and encourages vulnerability across the team.
