About Mental Health Mondays

Mental Health Monday is a monthly event series dedicated to fostering open, supportive conversations about mental well-being in our community. 

In partnership with our Mental Health Pillar Partner, Cenovus, these sessions go beyond the workplace covering a wide range of topics that impact both our professional and personal lives. Each month, a thought leader from one of Calgary’s leading mental health organizations will guide the conversation, share resources and be available to answer your questions. 

This series is also about building a sense of community—whether you’re personally navigating mental health challenges, supporting someone who is, or simply wanting to learn more. Whether you’re a business leader, team member or community partner, you’ll gain valuable tools, insights and connections to strengthen well-being for yourself and those around you. 

Together, let’s build a healthier, more resilient Calgary, because we’re always better together.

Facilitator

Jade Alberts

Founder | Peer Guidance - Purpose Before Profit

A company is only as healthy as its founder. I know the weight of that truth. Behind my successes lies a journey marked by stress, complexity, and profound personal strain. That’s why I share my story—and my family’s. We have raw, honest conversations with entrepreneurs about it all: from battling the brink of suicide to building a business. Because every part of this struggle needs a voice. I’ve lost count of how many we’ve helped, but the message remains: Your journey does not have to be a solitary one.
