This week I chat with Simon Rinne, founder of Mindful Men, about his journey as a therapist and the challenges he has faced in starting his own business. We chat about mental health, financial trauma, and the importance of seeking help and connection. Simon shares his personal experiences with depression, anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive disorder, why attitudes towards mens mental health is changing but still needs more work and how his decision to quit drinking has made a massive impact on his life and relationships.

I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did!
