Mental Health, Marathons and Faith… a road of redemption
In December 2022, I joined Ade Oladipo and Rory Jennings on TalkSPORT’s Men’s Room podcast in a mental health special. As the name of the podcast suggests, men’s wellbeing is high on the agenda and I was delighted to be their guest for this special episode in association with Mind, the mental health charity.
Here in the UK, suicide is the biggest killer of men and boys aged 9 to 50. Mind have launched a campaign this December highlighting the powerful medium of sport, in this case football, as a means to drive open conversations and vulnerability among young men.
In the podcast, we speak candidly about our own experiences with mental health, as well as signposting to the fantastic work charities like Mind are doing to break down barriers and help those struggling with mental health.
If you or someone you know is struggling please reach out and find support at Mind or Hub of Hope.
CONTENT WARNING: This episode includes discussion of self-harm and suicide.
