This episode of Mental Health in Tech features guest Casey Watts and delves into the interplay between mental health and technology, highlighting Casey's background in both psychology and tech. A significant portion of the discussion revolves around the importance of community-led initiatives in the tech industry and how these differ from corporate-driven meetups. Casey introduces the concept of the six levels of validation, derived from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, as an effective communication tool.

The conversation also addresses the pervasive issue of burnout in the tech industry. Casey shares his experiences and insights from conducting workshops on this topic, emphasizing the need for recognition and proactive management of burnout within organizations. The role of supportive work environments, especially in remote settings, is discussed as a key factor in maintaining mental well-being.

A recurring theme throughout the episode is the importance of having a robust support network. Casey and the hosts explore the benefits of such networks, both within the workplace and outside, for mental health and professional growth. The episode is a blend of personal experiences, practical advice, and professional insights, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the intersection of mental health and technology.
