Why do I do what I do?


This one is an easy answer for me - For my kids, my family, and myself.

My business, Promote Mental Health, has been developed from a life long journey of experiencing and training around mental health, and the passion and drive to share this with others.

I want to share knowledge, skills and understanding so people can support others with mental illness, so others don’t have to go through what I have experienced. There is so much need out there for this work, and some organisation don’t even realise they need it yet. This is my passion and this is the bit that’s for me.

But my overarching WHY is my kids and family. Everything I am, or do, is for them. No one can explain to you how your world changes once you have children. It has been an indescribable journey and they have the power to teach us so much. To teach us about their world, and teach us huge lessons about ourselves.

Everything I do is so we can have time together, make memories and go on adventures. This is just the most important thing in life


Why do you do what you do? I would love to hear your stories.

I am inspired by this set of conversation cards from Steven Bartlett and his guests, Definitely worth checking them out. Thanks Steven
