EP30: Brace yourself for loss with Joey Kolirin

05/02/22 • 51 min

Today I joined up with Joey Kolirin to discuss the passing of his father.
Joey shared the hard authentic truths about living with a family member who has a terminal illness. We touched on the weird culture around grief, and how those messages of sincerity dry up as life moves on.
It was interesting to hear from the perspective of someone who has lost a father and is now a father of his own, and how the trauma of his childhood has shaped Joey's decisions and the person he is today.

EP29: You are not your thoughts: With Tom Davies

Send us a text

Tom Davies is the host of the proper mental podcast- he is an active member of the mental health space, and his conversations on adversity are leaving a positive stamp on the world.
In reference to our conversation, Tom and I dove headfirst into the emotions of man, and why conversations around vulnerability are healing.
We also looked at the self-help reading scene, and how you can't implement everything that you read into your life- This was particularly helpful, as I am one for trying to change my life with every single bit of information I read, and that is an impossible feat for anyone.
Podcasts around mental health may not bring in the largest of audiences, but as Tom puts it ' helping that one person" makes all the difference.
