Vishal Narbheram

Founder of Onward Shift | Electrician | Mental Health Advocate

With 15 years’ experience as an electrician, Vishal Narbheram has seen first-hand the pressures that come with life in the construction industry long hours, high demands and the unspoken struggles that too many people face alone.

Battling ADHD, OCD and experiencing suicidal thoughts twice in his life, Vishal found a lifeline in therapy and the power of speaking openly. Those experiences transformed his perspective and gave him a new mission: to break the silence around mental health and prevent others from reaching crisis point.

Today, as the founder of Onward Shift, Vishal leads a movement to reduce suicide rates and improve mental wellbeing across the construction industry. Through honest storytelling, workshops and workplace talks, he shares his lived experience to raise awareness, challenge stigma and show that seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness!

Vishal’s message is simple but vital: no one should face their mental health struggles alone. With honesty, understanding and support, we can create a culture where every worker goes home safe, in body and mind.
