In today’s episode of Balanced Ambition, therapist and coach Simon Bostock shares how his own career shift from corporate life to counselling helped him understand something deep and universal:
We are not built for the way we live now.
Simon unpacks:
The crisis of loneliness among young men.
Why modern convenience has quietly robbed us of resilience
How our brains are wired for tribes, movement, and meaningful connection
The simple, daily habits that reduce anxiety and help you thrive
He also shares real stories from his work with students, offering practical tools you can use — from sleep and breathwork to gratitude and human contact — to rebuild calm, purpose, and connection in a chaotic world.
