In this enlightening episode, we Sandtrice Russell (Tree the LPC) sits down with Simon Rinne, a dedicated social worker, mental health advocate for men, and the passionate owner of Mindful Men and the Mindful Men Podcast. Simon bravely shares his personal journey coping with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), depression, anxiety, burnout, suicidal ideation, and alcohol misuse.
Simon opens up about his transformative experience during the COVID-19 pandemic, a period when he found the courage to confront and discuss his mental health struggles. This pivotal moment not only changed his life but also inspired him to create a supportive community for other men. Through his work, Simon challenges societal norms and encourages men to prioritize their emotional and mental well-being.
In a deeply personal and insightful discussion, Simon delves into his battle with OCD and the powerful impact of Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy on his recovery. Join us as we explore the importance of mental health advocacy, the challenges men face in seeking help, and the journey towards creating a more mindful and mentally healthy world.
Tune in for an episode filled with hope, resilience, and practical advice for anyone navigating their own mental health journey.
