Join me and special guest Big Shea as we open our hearts, sharing our raw and real experiences with mental health struggles under the strain of work and home life. Our conversation exposes the harsh realities and intense emotions that come with transitioning from corporate life to entrepreneurship, including the often overlooked impact that taking on the caregiver role can have on one's intimate relationships.

We've all got battles from our past that loom over us, but it's how we confront them that shapes our future resilience. This episode delves into the significance of tackling childhood traumas and crafting the mental fortitude needed to withstand adversity. You'll hear how life coaching and the creation of the Big Dog Talk podcast became beacons of hope during personal crises, and why the journey to mental wellness is as individual as your own fingerprint. We don't just brush the surface; we dig deep into the heart of mental health challenges and the bespoke paths to healing.

Wrapping up, we reflect on the lessons learned from stories of grief and loss, and how they can fortify your mental toughness. We explore the science behind willpower, located in the anterior mid cingulate cortex, and discuss how being vocal about our struggles can encourage support from those around us. Our episode concludes with an impassioned discussion on the importance of mental health awareness, leaving you with a sense of connection and a renewed appreciation for the power of the human spirit to overcome.
