Coached by Just

In the returning episode of Lads Mental Chat, I am joined by Justin Stevens of Coached by Just, fitness and nutrition coach. Justin coaches people of all walks of life, helping them with all things fitness and nutrition which in turn, has great mental health benefits.

Suicides are too many, whether male or female. This week, my wife, Katie joins me and tells her story. How she dealt with things then, and how she deals with things now. The relevance to male or female is so prevalent, such good content. Dealing with life changing situations, parenthood, new relationships and running a business.

This episode is jam packed with great advice coming from the depths of despair and real life experiences. Paul and I went school together and have only loosely kept in touch over the years via social media. This was a great chance for us to dig deep and hear each others journeys; the highs, the lows, the lessons we’ve learned and the journey we are both on to help others.

This week I had chat with Dan Brunt-Murphy, a guy I’d met in the gym and we’d known each other for a few years and seen each others struggles from a far. We had a chance to get to know each other better over the podcast and discuss our demons and we both have had to navigate social situations and friends groups to find what really matters.

Today, one of my best friends Ben Lee, joins me for a chat. Discussing the tools we have picked up, how we’ve supported each other and what it was like for Ben to witness me going through my bad times.

In this episode I give an overview of the mission I am embarking on, the importance of talking, a brief back story to me and where you can follow/contact me. In a bid to tackle the mental health stigma for lads and try and help reduce suicide rates in men. Throughout this series of podcasts I will be delving deep into issues, coping mechanisms, tools to help gain control, self development and much more. I will be having guests on to share their stories and insights as well as solo episodes. The subjects will be relevant, varied and put across in a relatable way. Whilst the topics will be serious, I hope to deliver it with banter and laughs as well as compassion.
