This one I've been holding back for a while, but I was lucky to sit down and chat with Eric Bandholz from Beardbrand.

Aside from Eric's really poor jokes (watch until the end!) we spoke openly about topics such as parenting, business success, finding confidence and infertility.

With Eric's channel having over 1 million subscribers, we really stepped 'behind the reel' in this interview...

We spoke about:

- How growing a beard helped him live his truth, and gain confidence.

- The struggles he and his wife faced trying to become parents.

- How he balances business with family, and the challenges he faces.

- The real reason why he started Beardbrand.

- The lessons he's learnt from failure

- What advice he would give to somebody wanting to become a YouTuber today...

I hope this conversation helps you as much as it helped me, and I want to once again thank Eric for his time and honesty. The main purpose behind this series is to show influencers in a light we might not see them from what they share on social media. Social media is very much a highlight reel, and we often forget these are humans behind these profiles.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on this interview, get involved in the comments below.

ALEX COSTA Talks Grief, Success and Mental Health - Behind The Reel #6 48:03

5 years temu48:03

48:03

THIS WAS A POWERFUL EPISODE. Two weeks ago I had a video call with Alex Costa, where we discussed mental health, his drive to never give up, dealing with grief and his work ethic. It's funny, I was first connected to Alex through Antonio Centeno (of Real Men Real Style) who let me know Alex was in London. We were trying to arrange to meet up, then randomly bumped into each other at the YouTube space in London. We discussed my switch to mental health, and Alex shared a personal story about his auntie... Alex also then shared the idea for this series, which is why it was. a real honour to have him on as a guest! We spoke about: - When he started YouTube and why. - His decision to move from gaming videos in Portuguese to men's lifestyle videos in English. - The times he felt like giving up, when results weren't coming. - His own personal experience with suicide, losing his Auntie and how that shaped his life. - His thoughts on mental health, and the importance of talking. - As an influencer, how much does he work? - Future plans for Alex and his channel. Even though we were both stuck in lockdown, and it would've been greater to do it in person, it was awesome to hear Alex talk so openly about issues he's faced. His advice around mental health I also try to reinforce to others on a daily basis, however tough things are right now... never give up. The main purpose behind this series is to show influencers in a light we might not see them from what they share on social media. Social media is very much a highlight reel, and we often forget these are humans behind these profiles. Thanks Alex!

BEST PODCAST AWARD! (Winning A Mind Media Award) 9:05

A while back, I featured on a podcast episode for MQ Open Mind. A podcast by the very amazing charity MQ Mental Health. In this episode, I alongside Hannah (from MQ) and Rory O'Connor (suicide researcher) got together to bring awareness for mental health and suicide on world suicide prevention day. It was a podcast that saw me, share my personal story, with Rory sharing from his research and perspective what may have caused my dad to fall ill like he did. The podcast was shortlisted for a Mind Media Award and last week, when attending the ceremony, we found out we won! I talk about the experience in this Podcast episode here, and share some behind the scenes secrets ;) Follow me on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/pmcgregorcom Get in touch: http://www.pmcgregor.com Hosted on Acast.

I recently poured a fresh brew of coffee, grabbed my microphone and hit record. In this episode, I get honest. Talking about a few emotions I've had to deal with and process recently, in the hope that it shows you that it's ok to talk about your emotions. Emotions are normal. Some are more painful than others, but it's not about turning off emotions it's instead learning the best way to manage and process them. In this episode I talk about 2 emotions I've had to process recently. 1. Dealing with burnout. 2. Could my Dad still be alive? I talk about them in more detail, and hopefully my honesty helps!

Depressed and Silent, to A Mental Health Advocate 50:02

SORRY! SORRY! SORRY! Firstly, for the lack of recent updates. But hopefully this episode makes up for it :) This was an old interview, back in summer, with Dave who has his own podcast and we discussed a lot around mental health, masculinity and also my journey. Back in 2009, just after losing dad, things didn't look great. I found myself in a dark place, at 21 with very little hope. But through seeking help, and through a journey of dealing with the emotions I suppressed I managed to change how I was feeling. Fast forward over 10 years, and I now share my story and talk openly about mental health full time... whenever I can. But it wasn't an easy ride. I discuss it with Dave in this Podcast. Enjoy!

Antonio Centeno (Real Men Real Style) - Behind The Reel #4 32:31

6 years temu32:31

32:31

This interview really shocked me. I've had the pleasure of knowing Antonio Centeno for a while now, but what he shared in this interview was truly inspiring. Antonio Centeno was someone I got to know after watching his videos on YouTube back in 2011, and seeing his channel grow over the years (and his work ethic) has been hugely motivating for me. His passion for style, business, but also helping people really shines through whenever I have a conversation with him. But this conversation was different... We spoke about: - When he got in to YouTube (and why) - The emotions he felt after losing his sister to suicide - His thoughts on the military, and the high suicide rates amongst veterans - Why what you see on YouTube, never tells the full story - How he deals with trauma in his life - His #1 piece of advice for anyone wanting to hit 1 million subscribers on YouTube I hope this conversation helps you as much as it helped me, and I want to once again thank Antonio for his time and honesty. The main purpose behind this series is to show influencers in a light we might not see them from what they share on social media. Social media is very much a highlight reel, and we often forget these are humans behind these profiles. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this interview, drop me a message!

Just finished up a lecture and wanted to record this episode sharing 5 lessons I wish I knew when I was 18. At 18, I had just faced the biggest turning point in my life. My Dad had taken his own life. I struggled with the grief, dealing with the why and I struggled to deal with anxiety and depression. In fact, things got pretty dark. From 21 I've been on a journey processing it, and trying to manage my own emotions. I decided to look back and think about 5 things I've personally learnt a long the way and I hope they help you too. They are: 5 Things I Wish I Knew At 18… 1. Focus on what I control 2. Don’t worry about judgement 3. Be present 4. Live in abundance, not in lack 5. Strive for freedom by being YOU.

How To Get Rid Of Guilt Instantly 8:49

6 years temu8:49

8:49

Feeling guilty and want to stop? In this episode I talk about what you can do to get rid of guilt instantly. Guilt is a negative emotion. When you carry guilt, you carry negativity. We often feel guilty because of things we've done in the past, but understanding the root cause of guilt is the first step to letting go. Remember guilt is just an emotion, a thought, and you control your thoughts. Therefore start by taking responsibility and resolving whatever it is that's causing you guilt. Then forgive yourself. We all make mistakes, it's how we deal with the mistakes we make which defines us. Forgiving yourself will allow you to remove the feeling of guilt immediately. Letting go of the past is key too, you can't control anything you've done in the past you can only control what you do right now. Let go of the past and make change in the present. I hope this episode helped, if it did don't forget to leave a rating and review.

So over the past few days there's been two occasions where I've been asked about antidepressants, and I wanted to share a few of those thoughts on this quick episode. In other episodes, I've been honest about my opinions about antidepressants but I wanted to reframe them in this video. For me, antidepressants and medication for mental health is needed. But the way they're being prescribed and the way it seems to be the ONLY treatment I can get instantly right now simply isn't right. I talk more about it in the episode! P.S.

And I really want to focus on the fact that depression can affect anyone. Depression isn't always constant sadness, it can often be disguised with a smile.

So this was hard, going back through and reacting to an article published about my Dad's suicide. If I'm honest, I completely forgot about it until recently we were looking through things for some content for a documentary. Isaac hit record on the camera, as I looked back and went through the article and the comments. Including a comment, from me. The 18 year old me. This was hard, but I'm hoping my honesty helps in this episode. Also, I'm hoping that it shows that even when tragedy hits. When you're dealing with adversity. You can get through it, and things can get better.

Travel Influencers Get Real (Interview With Camille & Jean) - Behind The 'Reel' #3 39:38

6 years temu39:38

39:38

To be honest, this interview really surprised me. For episode 3, I spoke to travel influencers Camille and Jean about the reality and pressures they face when it comes to social media. Their feed is inspiring, but at the same time I think it would be quite easy for some of us to compare our current lives to the travelling lifestyle they live. Also their relationship, would we compare the reality of our own relationship with what we see of theirs on social media? You can see them here - https://www.instagram.com/backpackdiariez/ Going 'Behind the Reel' really emphasised just how real these two are. I've been lucky to know them for a few months prior to this interview, and I really wanted them to share their story, the challenges they face and the 'normality' of their day to day life. We spoke about: - How they became travel influencers - The judgement and rejection they received when leaving their 9-5 - Arguments. Yes, they have them. - Their thoughts on social media. Is it fake or real? - The fear they have around how they're perceived online. - What they've learnt from travelling - Building a brand and balancing sponsorships It was such a pleasure to sit down with these two, and I hope it showed a different side to the two people we may stumble across on Instagram. Again the main purpose behind this series is to show influencers in a light we might not see them from what they share on social media. Social media is very much a highlight reel, and we often forget these are humans behind these profiles. These two continue to inspire me, and hopefully they inspire you too.

Dealing With Guilt - "I still feel guilty about my Dad's suicide" 28:46

6 years temu28:46

28:46

So the other week I jumped on a Facebook live stream to answer your questions but also talk about guilt. Guilt is something we all face, but I share a personal story about the guilt I carried (and still carry) around my Dad' suicide. When we lose someone there's normally an element of guilt that comes with it, feelings of doing more or regrets that we didn't spend more time with them. But I found that without dealing with that guilt it can drag us down. Without accepting, forgiving and embracing change we can't move on. In this audio I share how I managed to start dealing with that guilt and I hope it helps you too! If this helped, please do leave a rating and review.

So if I could spend one more hour with my Dad, would what I say to him? This was a question I was asked in a recent interview with Alex Manzi from the Dreamers Disease Podcast and it really got me thinking. To be honest with you, I really wouldn't know what I would say or do. A few weeks ago I published a clip from this interview but I wanted to share the whole interview. I've given a lot of interviews recently but Alex asked some questions that made me dig deeper and share things I've never really openly shared before. Including my struggles with business, which I kept hidden away to protect how 'successful' people saw me. I just want to say thank you to Alex for the interview, thank you to you for listening and I'm hoping my honesty in this helps.

How 1 Video Can Save Someones Life... 21:08

This Saturday I got invited to talk to the 'Young Champions' by time to change. Sharing my story, but also sharing how creating videos can help inspire others. This was an amazing opportunity for me, to combine two things I'm hugely passionate about... Mental health awareness and social media marketing. In fact, it came at a time when I've been really thinking about the impact of sharing your story on social media. Over the past 6 months I've had countless messages saying that my videos and posts helped, but now, I'm also receiving messages of people who are sharing their story openly and saying that I inspired them to do so. I think we underestimate how powerful sharing something on social media can be, and I wanted to highlight that in this episode. So this is a newly recorded, just for you, episode covering some of the key points I shared on Saturday. Hopefully it inspires you to go out and share your story too.

Depression Has No Face... (I Know, I've Been There) 5:23

6 years temu5:23

5:23

In this episode I share a personal story about how wearing a mask kept my emotions hidden from those around me. I also share about how this mask was the same one my Dad wore, just before he took his own life. This is a personal, quick, but super important episode. And I'm hoping that this shows others that they no longer need to wear a mask too. Depression simply has no face. No matter how we perceive someone through how they act or what they say, we never truly know what they’re going through. To all of us, my dad was happy. My dad was outgoing, successful, loved and was excited for his future. But his mind told a different story. Whenever you meet someone, remove all preconceived judgements of who they are and their levels of happiness. Whenever you see someone on social media, look through the highlight reel and fake smiles.

The Teenage Mental Health Crisis (BBC News Interview) 6:57

A few weeks ago I went in to the BBC studios to talk about the mental health crisis surrounding young people right now. This is something I'm hugely passionate, now as a Dad, I realise just how important it is to focus on the next generation when it comes to mental health. And hearing stories from people daily about how they've lost their children to suicide scares me... In it, I focus on the need for education. Mental health education within schools. I also talk about intervening earlier, for everyone, to give them the support and help they need when they still have a chance to recover. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this too. What can we do to help the mental health crisis surrounding young people right now? Hopefully you get some value from this episode, and as always don't forget to subscribe!

How To Stop Comparing Yourself To Others 17:48

6 years temu17:48

17:48

Do you often find yourself comparing your current situation with others? Comparing your job to others… Comparing your appearance with others… Comparing the things you own to others… One of the worst habits you can have is comparing yourself to others, but in this post I’m going to help you break that habit with a few simple mindset shifts. But why is comparing yourself to others bad? Comparisons have a damaging effect on your self worth. The comparisons we often make are unfair, simply because we compare areas we dislike the most about ourselves… If you’re happy in your job, it’s unlikely you’ll compare your job status to others because this is a fulfilled area of your life. But if your relationship with your partner sucks, you’ll probably create comparisons with other relationships. Therefore you’ll never win… because the comparisons you make are areas you’re feeling unfulfilled in. I touch more on comparisons and how to stop comparing yourself to others in this episode!

I loved this interview with Olivia from The Blogger Programme, it really was a chance for me to talk about two things I'm extremely passionate about. Digital marketing and mental health... We discuss my story, my early years in business, the recent shift I've made from the fashion industry to mental health awareness and we dive deep into the topic of influencers. From the role they play in mental health stigma, and what influencers should be thinking about to help engage and inspire their audience this episode really touches on the future of social media and influencers. I always love doing interviews like this, as the questions always get me questioning myself which help me create deeper understanding to then share on.

How To Support Someone With Depression 14:02

6 years temu14:02

This is someone you love. Whether it be a sibling, parent, friend or partner... This is someone you’d do anything for but their depression has put extreme strain on the relationship. How many more events can you miss because “they didn’t feel like it”? How many more mornings can you spend with them struggling to get out of bed? You’re surely fed up with the daily self pity, the complaining and the thought of them batting away every positive thing you say? This is someone who at first gave you everything you could imagine. They made you happy, they made you feel alive but behind that ‘mask’ lay hidden secrets that would later resurface. Has the relationship been a lie? Were they ever the person you once knew or were they always so unhappy and miserable? That thought alone is something that hits you hard. How long do you stick by them? How do you best support them through their depression? How do you make yourself feel good again? I’m going to try and answer how to support someone with depression from my own personal experience, learning from the mistakes I made with my Dad. I'm hoping this helps, because it's important that we educate ourselves on depression and knowing how to support those who need the support.

Why Would Someone End Their Life? A Conversation with James Alcott 54:50

A few months ago, James Alcott can to meet me in London to interview me for his video series called 'The Process'. Naturally known for his football videos, this conversation was completely different to what James was used to doing but he wanted to find out more about my Dad and how I dealt with his suicide too. I've given a lot of interviews like this recently, but what struck me with this one is how natural the conversation flew. At similar ages, with similar interests, it seemed like the only thing we lacked was the pub and a pint of beer! But that goes to show how conversations like this can happen between men. If you've heard me give interviews before, you're hear similar stories but James also takes this conversation places that I haven't gone before. So hopefully, this interview helps. Thanks to James for the opportunity, and once again thank you to you for listening!

Why Chasing Success Made Me Unhappy... 9:27

6 years temu9:27

9:27

I've never really shared this before... But on a recent Podcast interview with Alex Manzi of the Dreamers Disease, I spoke openly about my previous need for 'status'. A need that was purely driven from depression and my own insecurities. From the outside in I looked happy, I looked successful, but my mind, stress levels and bank balance told a completely different story. I was protecting my identity because I didn't want people to see how I felt inside. 18 months ago, I nearly lost my brother after he sustained a brain injury at work, just a few days after he was my best man at my wedding. Weeks later, as he still lay there in a coma, I sat in the lounge in 'my' 5 bedroom rented house and thought..."From the outside it looks like I have everything, but in reality I have nothing". If something happened to me, my family would be left with nothing. I'm writing and sharing this because I hope a life changing moment to yourself or a close family member isn't the thing that makes you realise that materialistic items won't make you happy, if it's covering up how you're feeling. But with my brother now home and recovering every single day, and with me now 'looking' less successful than I've ever been... I can honestly say, happiness = success. Success doesn't equal happiness. Hopefully you get some value from this episode, and as always don't forget to subscribe!

So it's about time I put some context to why I started this Podcast, and also what value you can gain from listening. If you follow me on any other social channel, you'll already know the kind of content I create, but I wanted this Podcast to simply be an extension of that. To allow you to listen to my content, in audio format, whenever you needed too. If you've never heard of me before, I share openly about my whole story in Episode 1 but also touch on it here. I aim to raise awareness around mental health by sharing openly about losing my Dad to suicide to dealing with my own mental health. I also try to share the stories of others too, to really hammer home that we're not alone when we think that we are. I have a lot of plans for this Podcast, from quick episodes offering hope and positivity to sitting down with other people to hear their stories too. I'll also be interviewing people within the mental health system alongside influencers, and people in the limelight to try and see their take on how society currently addresses mental health.

Standing Up To Suicide on Sky News... 10:37

I recently had the honour to head into the Sky studios for an interview with Kay Burley on Sky News. I wanted to play you the interview, alongside giving you a bit of a background into how it happened. In the interview we spoke about the book, but also went into detail about my Dad's depression, his suicide, the way I dealt with it and the stigma that still surrounds mental health. It's only short, about 10 minutes long, but since it went live I've had numerous messages from people stating that it helped so I wanted to share it here. My biggest takeaway from it is just how important it is that we talk openly about mental health. That we say how we feel and we're not afraid to talk openly about suicide either. The more people talk, the less people who feel ashamed to share how they feel. Enjoy!

A few months ago, I was interviewed by the guys over at 'Life Are We There Yet'. If I'm honest, I didn't expect the interview to go the way it did... but this was probably me at my most honest. We spoke about my Dad's downfall, his suicide, my struggles to deal with it and my battles with depression and anxiety. We also spoke about what I did that helped, alongside what I'm now doing to try and help others. As a first episode for this brand new Podcast, I thought this would be the perfect start. This is me, 100% transparent, trying to share as much as I can to show others that it's ok to talk. To show others not to be ashamed. I'm committed to making change to the way mental health is perceived within society, and I'm committed to showing others that talking is strength. I'm hoping my honesty in this interview shows that.

Suicide NEEDS To Be Spoken About (Here's Why)... 37:57

Just before Christmas in 2018 I sat down with Ellen for the Metro's Podcast called Mentally Yours. It was an honour to be featured, and I wanted to share the full conversation with you. In it, I talk about the need for us to start talking about suicide. With it affecting so many, but with many still suffering in silence, we need to start normalising the conversation. Grief in particular is something as a society we shift away from talking about, but when it's suicide, that silence becomes deeper. The more open we can be about suicide, hopefully the less people will feel alone. I see it as the big 'S' now, and we can almost relate it to when cancer was the big 'C'. It's time to normalise the conversation around suicide. Thanks to the Metro for having me on the Podcast. If this helped, please do leave a rating and review.

A few weeks ago I spoke at a panel for The Whole Man Academy alongside David Gandy. Situated at Number 1 Savile Row at Gieves and Hawkes, it was a huge honour to share my story and highlight the need for men to talk more about mental health. Hearing David also open up too, highlighting the effects of social media and how even he has dealt with mental health problems in the past, it was refreshing to see such an open conversation around men and mental health. As a lot of you know, my background was in the fashion industry. Starting an online store when I was 19, running a men's fashion magazine and also creating a lot of videos around men's style and fashion. For the past year, I've focused heavily on raising awareness and changing the conversation we have around mental health and being able to combine both interests for this talk was really special. This video shows my involvement in the panel, and if you're based in the UK I'd highly recommend checking out The Whole Man Academy to come to similar events like this. Follow them on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/wholemanacademy/ On the panel I shared my story, how important it is for us men to talk and be ok with vulnerability, the importance of self awareness alongside how the importance of embrace change.

How To Overcome Self Doubt - Coffee With Paul #2 9:02

If you have a negative inner voice and your mind is always putting you down, how do you deal with it? How do you overcome self doubt? In the second episode of 'Coffee with Paul', one of questions I got asked was dealing with self doubt and I think it's something we've all struggled with at some point. For me, understanding that self doubt is put there by someone else is a really important shift. We're typically not born with self doubt, but parents, teachers, friends, partners or co workers will plant that voice of self doubt in our mind. Understanding this and trying to take control of that thought is so important. I also answer questions about whether mental health units are the answer to peoples problems, how to deal with lack of motivation and whether I'm looking after myself with the mental health work I'm doing right now. Grab yourself a coffee, sit back, and hopefully my honesty in this video helps you.

This was the episode I wanted when coming up with the idea of Behind The 'Reel', and I'm honoured to share this sit down interview with Aaron Marino. Aaron (Alpha M) is someone I first connected with back in 2010, and seeing his channel grow to almost 5 million subscribers has been inspiring. But I wanted to step behind the scenes, and see how Aaron feels about his YouTube success. We spoke about: - How he started YouTube and why. - His lowest points, going bankrupt and struggling for money. - The negativity he receives on YouTube, and how he struggles to deal with them. - Sponsorships. Is it all about the money for him? - Advice he would give to someone starting or trying to grow their YouTube channel. - How to deal with your mental health and overcome challenges. It was such a pleasure to sit down with Aaron, get to know him more, and share it with you all in this episode. The main purpose behind this series is to show influencers in a light we might not see them from what they share on social media. Social media is very much a highlight reel, and we often forget these are humans behind these profiles. I loved Aaron's honesty in this, and his someone I'm truly inspired by watching his growth online since 2010.

It's time for change, too many people are suffering in silence. Pledge your support here: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/a-documentary-to-expose-the-mental-health-crisis Quite simply, this documentary HAS to be made. Because even though the statistics that surround mental health and suicide are shocking, still little action is being made to prevent people losing their lives to this 'silent' killer. - Suicide is the biggest killer of young people. - Suicide is the biggest killer of men under the age of 45. - Suicide is the biggest killer of Mum's with an under one year old. - 1 in 8 children now have a diagnosed mental disorder. But still... the mental health system lacks funding, appropriate treatments and needed support. Simply put, the mental health system is BROKEN. People are having to wait over 6 months+ for therapy, people are being told they're "not mentally ill enough" for treatments, people are still being judged for seeking help and many others still suffer alone and in silence. We're making a documentary that will tell the stories of real people affected by mental illness and people let down by the mental health system. A documentary that exposes the broken health system, what's going wrong, how we can better it and more importantly force well needed change. This isn't going to be a documentary that 'tip toes' around the issue. This is going to be a documentary that exposes the issue. Alongside the brave people sharing their stories within this documentary, this is your chance to join them. To do your bit to help break the silence, and to be a part of change. How?

So for this episode I grabbed the microphone and shared what's on my mind right now. A thought that's been pulling me down... "My Dad could still be alive knowing what I know now". It's led to a mixture of emotions, I feel proud because of how far I've come and everything I've discovered but I also feel guilty and sad that my Dad could still be alive. With it approaching 10 years since his suicide as well it makes it difficult for me to picture how my life would be if he was still alive. It leads into the point of this episode, that education around mental health is so important. We need to become better educated, to understand it better, in case a crisis hits. I didn't know how to support my Dad when he went through his depression because I simply wasn't educated on it. I wasn't taught how to deal with it. I'll continue doing what I do until we have more research, education and understanding. Hopefully my honesty in this episode helps, and I just wanted to say a huge thank you for listening!

2019. The Year of Prevention 9:46

HAPPY NEW YEAR! I've spent the last two weeks really disconnected. I've rarely updated this Podcast, social media, and also disconnected from my phone altogether recently on a family trip to Tenerife. Honestly, that disconnect has been so refreshing and something I needed. In this episode, I look back on 2018 and explain why 2019 needs to be the year for prevention. It needs to be the year of change to help with this current mental health crisis. There was a huge amount of talk and and awareness in 2018, something I focused on, but with more people now seeking help and feeling less alone we need to start putting things in place to help those in need. I explain more in this quick episode. Thanks to you for listening, supporting, and being a part of changing the voice around mental health.

The Mental Health Unit Failed My Dad... 38:58

Here's an interview I gave back in November for Maytree. I'm hoping this interview offers some value to you in two ways, through my honesty in the interview but also as an introduction into the amazing work that the Maytree do. Since giving this interview I reflected on how my Dad would've probably benefited from something like the Maytree, rather than being sectioned and spending time in a mental health unit on the NHS. If I'm honest, and this isn't true for every unit, the environment within these units really aren't beneficial for people struggling with mental health. In this interview we talk a little bit about the work they do at the Maytree, I discuss how my Dad being treated differently could have created a different outcome and also what he meant to me. Hopefully it helps!

"Grief With The Volume Turned Up" - Dealing With Suicide 13:09

6 years temu13:09

Someone once explained suicide grief as "grief with the volume turned up". It really struck a cord with me, as I really did struggle to accept my Dad's suicide. Grief is hard, knowing that someone you love has gone can lead to a rollercoaster of emotions. As a British society too, we also struggle to talk about grief and people who've died. But suicide? It's almost like we have to be silent about the loss, but also silent about how it happened. I've been open and honest in the past about how I lied about my Dad's suicide, how I was angry, how I felt ashamed, and how I suffered in silence personally trying to hide the emotions that came with his death. In a recent talk for The Grace Dear Trust, I shared how it happened and how I struggled to deal with it. The Grace Dear Trust was set up after they lost their daughter/sister to suicide, so I wanted to talk about suicide bereavement as most people in the audience knew Grace too.

Sofa Sessions #1 (Losing A Parent With Anneli Roberts) 53:48

So this was slightly different! I drove to Cardiff to visit fellow mental health campaigner Anneli Roberts of Pigletish.com a few weeks back and we recorded the conversation we had. We sat down on the sofa, hit record on the camera and spoke as openly and honestly as we could about mental health. From losing our parents at a similar age, to how we dealt with the grief, to coping mechanisms and what helps us day to day... this episode really is an honest one. It's funny, even though we were talking about some serious issues, things we both bottled up for years, it still seemed so normal to just chat with a cup of coffee and be able to relate to one another. Hopefully this goes to show that it is ok to talk, it is ok to share how you feel and that even though you feel alone... you're not. Anneli is doing some amazing work with her own Podcast (link below) and also blogs as well. Her story is powerful and I'm really grateful for her coming on to the Podcast. Thanks to you for listening, supporting, and being a part of changing the voice around mental health. Hopefully you get some value from this episode, and as always don't forget to subscribe!

How To NATURALLY Deal With Mental Health Issues... 40:36

So this is one from the archives on my old Podcast, but I think this could offer huge value to you. I spoke to Dr Phil Carson about natural ways to deal with mental health issues. Why? Because Dr Phil was someone who was a trained doctor who practiced medicine who then transitioned into more natural remedies and saw some amazing results. This episode needs an open ear and an open mind, we're very conditioned to believe the medication is the only way to getting better sometimes. But in this episode we talk about natural ways to help depression, anxiety alongside other physical illnesses. Dr Phil Carson is still doing some amazing work, so go and check out his work too!
