Ep 7 of the Always Better than Yesterday Interview Sessions was with Reece Anderson, the Mental Health Motivator.

During the interview it was inspiring to hear how Reece went from being a fit and able sportman to being crippled by panic attacks and mental health issues which lead him to attempting to take his own life 😢

It is amazing to see how he came back from being at his lowest point to now being someone that helps others overcome their own mental health issues. 💪🏻

Some of the key lessons Reece has learned along the way are:

💡Take Ownership - you can have all the support in the world but until you admit “I’m not ok” only then can you start to take action

💡Don’t try and please everyone

💡Prioritise self care - not always the popular choice but looking after himself meant he was a better person to be around

We also talked about a toolkit he has developed to help himself with any struggles
🧠Checking in with his body, recognising triggers
🧠Meditation
🧠Tapping
🧠Pyrolle
🧠Eating well
🧠Moving the body
🧠Getting good sleep

It was great to hear what being ABTY means to Reece. He sees it as all the small 1% things we do to be better which all add up to make a big difference.

Reece is speaking regularly in the mental health space, inspiring people and especially men regularly to be the best version of themselves. 💙
