The founding vision of Clear Minds was, and remains to this day, a community first approach. The company was launched in 2021, amidst the pandemic and in the immediate aftermath, as most of us found ourselves trying to find and fit with a ‘new normalcy’ it presented a seismic shift in how we work and live.
For some, this involved a whole new work-life rebalance and for others it entailed new work patterns and working from home. For almost everyone affected, these changes came with their own challenges; ones which brought to the conscious mind, how we live and work and the need to address things which appeared to be affecting us and disrupting our balance.
The explosion of wearable tech which then followed, would constantly tell us if we were not sleeping or if we were anxious but would not venture a solution or help. What followed was increasing demand for psychological support and medical intervention, all of which also came with challenges from cost to availability, as well as the fundamental issue of ‘where to start’.
These factors have shaped the strategy of Clear Minds and by 2023/24 with the emerging patterns and challenges becoming ever clearer, we knew that it was time to take the established product and the power of community, directly into the workforce.
As we opened discussions with experienced professionals, supported by our own experts with direct experience in highly regulated sectors, we could also see the compounding effect of AI and how this was causing even greater degrees of uncertainty and anxiety around job retention and progression. All of which was adding to the pressure on mental health, bleeding across work, life and family communities.
Paradoxically at a time where communication between executives, managers and the wider workforce has become paramount, evolving legislation around disabilities and rights to reasonable adjustments has stopped many employers from opening discussions with employees who appear to be struggling.
This has only served to widen the gap of ‘trust-based’ communication which affects the underlying culture of any organisation. Employees have become wise to ‘tick box’ gestures for covering legislation. This unique offer is authentic, proven and ultimately, empowering for every mind.
“At Clear Minds we invest in the success of our B to B customers which centres on culture and community and which requires the combined force of every individual mind”.
