Podcast Notes

“If I can completely fall apart like that, then other people are going to be suffering in silence in the same way as I was.”

“We should be utterly ashamed of the suicide rate among men, and everyone should be doing something about it.”

“Take time to breathe. Remember what is really important in your life, ground yourself by slowing your heart rate down, relaxing your body, and being able to answer things correctly based on who you actually are.”
