Thank you for tuning in to The CUInsight Network, with your host, Lauren Culp, President & CEO of CUInsight. In The CUInsight Network, we take a deeper dive with the thought leaders who support the credit union community. We discuss issues and challenges facing credit unions and identify best practices to learn and grow together.

My guest on today’s show is Robbie Young, VP of Strategic Growth at CUInsight. Robbie is a Certified Credit Union Development Educator (CUDE), mental health advocate, and our unending source of fun facts about the world. She sees CUInsight as a central source to keep credit union professionals inspired, connected, and informed.

During our conversation, Robbie discusses the importance of mental health advocacy and shares resources. She talks about the direct and indirect influence mental health has on professionals in the industry. Robbie explains the importance of taking care of ourselves first, so we can properly care for our members and teams. She shares her experience and the benefits gained from the Credit Union Development Education (DE Program) and looks forward to returning as a mentor this year. Listen as Robbie talks about what you can do to support the mental health of yourself and others.
