Education
In this episode, I welcome Connor Stone back to the show (nearly a year to the day after his first appearance) to find out a little more about him and what led him to start his wellbeing blog and podcast, AMentalHealthJourney.com.It’s been awesome to see how things have progressed for him over the year since we spoke. Alongside continuing to run AMentalHealthJourney.com, he’s also set up a new business, Work Mindful, he’s started a new podcast, Mindful Minute, and his social following has grown exponentially (see below for more info).The original conversation we had was very functional as it was more around mental health resilience tips, owning to the world as it was when it was recorded. So it was great to have a more personal and open discussion with Conor about his journey with depression and anxiety, which really came to the forefront after getting a sports-injury. This led him down a path of therapy and a discovery of mindfulness and meditation, and when he found himself in a better place, he started to share his experiences…the rest is history.For me this is a conversation about having the bravery to face our demons and shining a light on past trauma in whatever guise that may be. It’s a conversation about being honest with ourselves, following our curiosity and really showing up every day to make those small incremental changes to grow and learn. I really feel Conor is the embodiment of this and want to say a big thanks to him for being a guest again on the show and all of the work he does to help other people.Other episodes you may like:#17 Lex Morningstar: Introversion, sensitivity and being human#12 Grace Marshall: We’re all growing and learning together #11 Conor Stone: Looking after your mental health#9 Paul Ledger: Building a better relationship with our emotionsFind out more about Conor:Follow Connor on InstagramA Mental Health Journey website Information about Work Mindful Join the Connections Untold community:InstagramFacebook
