On today’s episode is mental health advocate Ryan Mairs, who started up his own awareness platform called "Mairsy Let’s Talk" whilst at university. 

Life was really tough for Ryan almost from the outset, with his dad passing away when he was barely in his early teens and to make matters worse he was also being bullied in school.

Understandably, this took Ryan to a really dark place, but he found solace in mixed martial arts and went on to compete at a semi-professional level. 

However, Ryan’s story is also one of many ups and downs, having suffered since with bouts of depression and anxiety. I’m really pleased to say though that he’s managed to work his way through those tough moments, and is now in a much better place. 

In this episode we talk about how Ryan overcame feelings of depression and anxiety, and I hope some of the things talked about might be helpful for listeners. 

Above all, I hope you enjoy the episode and don't forget to hit follow/subscribe!
