Chef Jeffrey Schlissel recently wrote an article for Catersource magazine highlighting the importance of mental health in the hospitality industry. In his article, he reflected on how mental health is often overlooked in conversations, despite its significant impact on individuals in the industry.
Schlissel shared a poignant moment at the American Culinary Federation convention in 2018, where the topic of mental health was brought to the forefront following the tragic death of Chef Anthony Bourdain. During the convention, a chef shared his personal struggle with mental health and how his wife had saved his life. This emotional and eye-opening moment prompted Schlissel to address the need to shine a light on mental health issues within the industry.
The author emphasized the importance of addressing mental health openly and creating a safe space for individuals to seek help and support. By starting conversations and normalizing discussions around mental health, the hospitality industry can begin to prioritize the well-being of its employees.
