We’re here to tear away the silence around mental health in workplaces, homes and communities across the GCC.
Through podcasts, live panels, expert conversations, real-life stories, regional campaigns and the Mentl Awards, we spotlight the people and organisations driving real change in mental wellbeing.
We explore stress, burnout, anxiety, workplace wellbeing, emotional resilience and the human side of leadership, with practical insights for individuals, teams and organisations.
mentl is one of the GCC’s leading platforms for workplace and community mental health.

Geopolitical tension. Economic pressure. Heavy workloads. Uncertainty. Always-on news....and World Cup late nights.

We are all still showing up, getting the work done, but what is that pressure doing beneath the surface?
Join mentl as we sit down with Paul Firth FInstSMM Firth, Founder and Managing Director of Lyra MENA, - and judge for the mentl awards 2026 - as we look at what is, and what isn't, working in organisations as we head into H2.

Neuroinclusion is having a moment. But the real test is not what’s written in policy, it’s what happens on a normal Tuesday, inside a real team.
In this special Workplace Harmonics episode, supported by Viatris and AmCham Abu Dhabi, Scott Armstrong (mentl) is joined by Dr Khaled Kadry (Medical Director of Sakina for Children, and neurodiversity expert), Geoff McDonald (former Global VP of HR, Unilever) and Sara Boueri (CHRO, board advisor) to move the conversation beyond labels and into practical work design.
This is a direct, candid discussion about psychological safety, meeting culture, interruptions, disclosure, and why “performance” can look fine on paper while people are quietly burning out.

In an ideal workplace, people should feel safe saying, “I have ADHD,” “I’m autistic,” or “this is how I work best.” But would you actually say that in a job interview?
In the latest episode of Workplace Harmonics, Dr Khaled Kadry argues that progressive leaders should understand neurodivergent strengths and build roles around how people perform best. (full episode here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Dz40...)
Would you disclose it at interview stage?

😌 Need a reset? Keep the audio on, close your eyes, breathe with it for a minute, and let your body come down a gear. If you want: breathe in for 4, breathe out for 6 and repeat.
