Episode 3: Mental health in the wildlife industry and knowing when to take a break, with marine biologist Olly Pitt
Description
Olly Pitt is a marine biologist that has spent the past 9 years working at the Australian Seabird and Turtle Rescue (NSW), with the last 6 years holding the position of the general manager. In this episode we were able to delve deep into the toll that working in the wildlife industry has on our mental health. Olly runs us through her decision in taking a step back from the industry, as well as her future plans for her fresh start. She also provides us with advice with networking, as well as advice for managers in mitigating gender issues within the workplace. You can follow Olly's work @biologist_ollypitt.
