We’ve had a fantastic conversation with today’s guest once before.  Joe Sabien founded Sea Sanctuary and previously came on to talk about the healing potential of awe specifically in relation to the sea.  We didn’t much talk about his own history although he did allude to his own childhood shaping his attitude towards the sea.  Today we’re really privileged that he’s come back on to share some of his own inspirational story. 

In the episode, Naomi and David welcome back Joe Sabien, to share his personal journey and insights into mental health. Joe discusses his very difficult childhood experiences, the impact they had on his life, and how they ignited his passion for helping others. He also introduces his latest initiatives aimed at improving access to mental health support and giving a voice to those who have experienced care.
