Meet The Founder
Vishal Narbheram, Founder
Onward Shift is more than just a company, it’s a movement!
It’s a place where everyone is seen, heard and accepted no matter who they are or where they come from.
In an industry like construction, where resilience is often expected but support is rarely provided, we’re here to change that!
I’ve been an electrician for 15 years, working in an industry that thrives on hard work, long hours and tough conditions. While I’ve always loved my craft, I’ve also faced the challenges that many in construction and other demanding fields experience stress, burnout and mental health struggles that too often go unnoticed or unspoken.
For years, I battled my own challenges. I’ve been diagnosed with ADHD and OCD and I’ve struggled to fit in. Not just at work but in life. There were days when I felt overwhelmed, isolated and unsure where to turn for help. I knew I needed support but finding the right resources was exhausting. I was constantly bouncing between different services, reading endless reviews and never quite finding a single place that truly understood what I was going through and what I needed.
So, I created Onward Shift.
I built this space for people like me, for tradespeople, construction workers and anyone who has ever felt like they had to face their mental health struggles alone. Onward Shift is a trusted, accessible and supportive space where you can find the help you need without the confusion and frustration of researching multiple services.
I know firsthand that the journey isn’t easy and change doesn’t happen overnight but what I also know is that no one should have to go through it alone. Whether you’re dealing with stress, anxiety, burnout or just feeling lost, Onward Shift is here for you, every step of the way.
In the construction industry, we’re always building something, but it’s time we start building each other up, too. Onward Shift is here to help you lay the foundation for a healthier, stronger and more supported future.
Because you deserve more than just getting through the day, you deserve to thrive and be your authentic self.
Welcome to Onward Shift, your safe space to heal, grow and move forward.
At Onward Shift, we are breaking the stigma around mental health. Especially in construction and high pressure industries by making support accessible, straightforward and judgement free. Everyone deserves the right help in a way that works for them. Through a growing network of resources, we provide real solutions, guidance and encouragement. Mental health shouldn’t be a struggle. With the right support, the journey can be one of growth and strength.
We envision a world where mental health is prioritised, not stigmatised! Onward Shift is committed to creating both physical and digital wellness spaces, making support accessible to as many people as possible, wherever they are. By developing a range of channels, we connect with our community in ways that best suit them, ensuring no one feels alone in their journey. Mental well-being isn’t just for some but it’s for all! Our future is one where mental health is embraced, talked about openly and supported as an essential part of everyday life.
We’re not trying to offer short term help or solutions, we’re putting our focus on helping people SHIFT their mindsets for a better future:
See the world for what it can be
Have the confidence to take on each day
Inspire hope for a better tomorrow
Feel your best
Tomorrow only gets better!
We love that everyone
is unique and creating an atmosphere that is welcoming is our highest priority!
