The Psychosocial Safety USA Podcast explores how work conditions shape human behavior, wellbeing, and performance. We spotlight psychosocial hazards and the strategic opportunities leaders gain by designing environments where people can think, feel, and perform at their best. Through research, lived experience, and practical frameworks, the show reframes psychosocial safety as both a human right and a competitive advantage. Whether you’re a worker seeking clarity or a leader building higher‑performing systems, this podcast provides the insights needed to help everyone thrive.Dr. I.

  • The State of PHS, 4 Years Later the International Panel

    The State of PHS, 4 Years Later the International Panel
    Jun 19 2026
    In June, 2021, FlourishDx conducted a live event focused on ISO 45003. At the time, I. David Daniels was working on a doctoral dissertation toward a doctorate in Occupational Health and Safety. I could argue that this event changed not only the course of my research but also the course of my life and ultimately led me to host the Psych Health and Safety USA podcast. In Episode 1 of the Psych Health and Safety USA Podcast, Host Dr. I. David Daniels was joined by the same group that was a part of the 2021 event: Jason Van Schie, Joelle Mitchell, Mary Ann Baynton, and Peter Kellly. In this episode, this group of some of the world’s foremost experts on psychological health and safety is back to share their observations about the field. This reunion is intended to serve as a check to see what has changed in the past four years across the four countries represented, and also as a send-off as Dr. Daniels transitions the podcast to its new name, “Psychological Safety USA podcast.”

  • Better Response for First Responders With Dr. Kalim Wigfall

    Better Response for First Responders With Dr. Kalim Wigfall
    Jun 5 2026
    Dive into Episode #170 of the Psych Health and Safety USA Podcast, featuring host Dr. I. David Daniels, PhD, CSD, VPS, and special guest Dr. Kalim Wigfall, a veteran of the U. S. Coast Guard and behavioral health expert, who is the founder of the American Board for First Responder Behavioral Health. Psychosocial hazards may be perceived or experienced differently by individuals, but they originate in fully controllable organizational conditions: workload design, leadership behavior, communication patterns, staffing models, operational tempo, and cultural norms. These are system variables, not personal traits. System variables require system controls. The goal of FRBH is to establish national standards for first responder behavioral health systems and to establish a system to accredit organizations to address the behavioral, emotional, and mental health of their members.
