on October 17, 2025

On this episode of Millennium Live, we’re tackling one of the most pressing and rapidly evolving topics in the modern workplace: Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs)—and why traditional models are no longer meeting the needs of today’s workforce. Joining the pod is Stephen Sokoler, Founder of Journey, a first-of-its-kind Proactive EAP built to support every employee, every day. Journey combines a high-engagement digital platform with personalized service to help employees access support before challenges become crises. Stephen shares why conventional EAPs fall short, how Journey is reimagining mental health support, and what it takes to foster a culture where employees feel safe and empowered to prioritize their well-being. We’ll explore the future of workplace mental health, boosting benefit engagement, and the power of proactive care in building healthier, more resilient teams.
