I am originally from Leszno, Poland. I decided to move to Ireland a few months after my post-graduation from university. In 2006 I decided to start up a more flexible model of support that could treat people when and where they needed it most. I wanted to create a service that was the first call for people, when they knew they had to make the toughest call they might ever have to make.
MyMind is still young and growing as an organization; we are learning to be a business. I have skills as a psychologist, however I am still learning to be a CEO, but am also trying to be the operational manager, marketing and communications manager and so on. We’re stretched and we don’t have the capacity or time to plan and think ahead. We are ambitious to grow but will not do so at the cost of damaging our social impact.
