Anxiety - it's tough to define it.

It can mean so many different things to so many people. It can be debilitating, or it can be a minor inconvenience. But one thing's clear. However we experience anxiety, it's not a positive feeling!

This year's theme for Mental Health Awareness Week is anxiety so, for this solo episode, I share my experiences, tips and thoughts on anxiety and explain why 'awareness' simply isn't enough when it comes to mental health in 2023.

Do you take enough time for self-care?

It's more than just a mental health buzzword. Self-care is something to be taken super seriously and one person doing just that is this week's guest.

On this episode, I'm delighted to be joined by podcaster, writer, speaker and mental health advocate Jack Walton.

Jack shares his experiences with PTSD and anxiety, the role self-care plays in his life and the story behind his book and his excellent new podcast Own Your Journey.

A really inspirational episode with so many great insights and actionable tips!

Ever contacted work, unable to come in because of your mental health?

If you're anything like me, you're overcome with guilt, embarrassment and a fear of not being taken seriously.

On this solo episode, I discuss mental health sick days, sharing my own personal experiences and explaining why I believe they should be considered just as significant as regular physical health sick days.

Have you ever thought deeply about your relationship with alcohol?

I'm thrilled to welcome Will Armstrong, aka The Teetotal Trainer, onto this episode of Modern Men.

Will shares his personal journey of alcohol addiction and drug abuse, stemming from anxiety, confidence and social pressures.

During our chat, he explores how his eyes were opened to the devastating effect alcohol was having on his life and how it led him down a path of teetotalism and a complete change in lifestyle. Now, Will uses his experiences to help others who find themselves struggling like he did.

It's truly inspirational stuff and I thoroughly enjoyed hearing Will's story.
