🔢 How to Approach a Colleague You're Worried About
1️⃣ Choose the moment — Private, unhurried, not mid-shift crisis
2️⃣ Lead with observation — "I've noticed you seem really tired lately"
3️⃣ Ask the real question — "How are you REALLY doing?"
4️⃣ Listen and validate — Don't fix, don't minimize, don't say "everyone's tired"
5️⃣ Connect to resources — EAP, peer support, manager if appropriate
You're not diagnosing. You're opening a door.
