Ep.12 Tom Home | Building Your Team On and Off The Pitch
Manage episode 293657701 series 2893925
So last week was #mentalhealthawarenessweek and after some battles with it myself over the past year, I started following a page on Instagram, @_blOKes. This week I spoke to the founder or blOKes, Tom Home to discuss the progression of the company and what he got up to and learnt last week.
We spoke about what he learned through his time at university and how his experiences in life and sport (particularly rugby) led him to starting a platform that allows men of all ages to chat with other like-minded individuals about their worries, fears and issues.
Myself and Tom discussed the importance of building a support network (team) and particularly one of his hashtags #AskTwice. This is something I strongly believe in because, as we know, it is all too easy to say “I’m fine” and then regret missing your chance to open up.
So, if you are asking someone that question, make sure you mean it, make sure you actually want to know how they are and ask them twice. It might just be the moment that person needs to unload and stop the snowball.
You can find Tom on Instagram @_blOKes
