ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Kim is President/CEO of Kim LaMontagne, LLC., Corporate Mental Health Trainer, International Speaker, and Author. She is also the Wellbeing Director for HR Florida State Council, State Trainer and Teacher for the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI).
Kim was a top performing processional who suffered in silence with depression, anxiety, alcohol misuse, and intense suicidal thoughts. She feared judgment, retribution, job loss, and damaging her professional integrity is she spoke openly and acknowledged that she needed help.
As a result, she remained silent and almost lost her life. A conservation, with an observant leader, was the turning point that changed and saved her life.
At 14 years sober and healthy, she shares her journey to teach leaders how to shift the culture and normalize the conversation about mental health in the workplace.
She has the unique ability to teach through the lens of lived experience and the lens of the leader.
Her mission is to share her lived experience to teach leaders how to create a safe culture where everyone is empowered to speak openly about mental health.
