Geoff Graham, known for his work with CSS Tricks and Smashing Magazine joins hosts Schalk Neethling and Schalk Venter for this episode of the Mental Health in Tech podcast. As has become customary, they start with a simple yet powerful practice that sets the stage for a candid conversation about the often-overlooked mental health struggles faced by many in the tech industry.

Geoff shares his journey, discussing how he balances work, family, and personal interests while managing different aspects of his life. He highlights the facade of happiness he maintained for years, leading to burnout and severe depression, and his decision to openly discuss his struggles.

The conversation covers the pressures of high performance in the tech industry, the role of openness in building support networks, and the need for more accessible entry points for beginners in web development. Geoff also emphasizes recognizing and managing internal critical voices and finding humor in coping mechanisms to improve mental health.

In conclusion, the conversation with Geoff Graham is a powerful reminder of the importance of mental health in the tech industry. It calls for a cultural shift towards greater openness and support, encouraging professionals to be honest about their struggles and seek help when needed. By embracing vulnerability and fostering a supportive community, we can create a healthier, more sustainable tech industry for everyone.
