Her videos have received over 2.5 million likes. One of the most challenging concerns about organizations' psychological health and safety culture is the gap between what is advertised as the culture and publicized as the rules and the reality people find once they get inside the organization. In many cases, the rules as advertised don’t match the rules as implemented. Dr. Jiminez is a part of a growing course of voices seeking to help people navigate what can be a minefield of potential psychosocial risks.
