Welcome to the first ever guest episode on "And What Else?"! Today I'm joined by the wonderful Dr Sophie Mort, who is a registered Clinical Psychologist and Sunday Times Bestselling Author. Our conversation went in depth on a lot of topics I've touched on in the podcast before, such as hyper-independence and distracting yourself from the real problems. Sophie is also the British Mental Health Expert at Headspace and her aim is to break down and share the information usually kept behind closed therapy room doors, inside stuffy old textbooks, and in the ivory towers of universities. This conversation will be sure to keep you thinking on how you can start to prevent rock bottom moments, build your way up to being rejection-proof (it's not actually what you think!) and how you can teach yourself to embrace rest. If there's anyone in particular you think would be great for me to interview on the podcast, please send their details my way!

Today Sophie and I are discussing:

• Being proactive with your mental health
• Hyper-independence as a coping strategy in different life areas
• Productivity anxiety and the feeling of not doing enough
• Overcorrection and intergenerational patterns
• The fear of death and if it's actually a fear of not having lived
• Rejection therapy and aiming for average

You can find Dr Soph on her website at https://drsoph.com/, on Instagram @_drsoph. Her books, Unstuck and A Manual for Being Human can be purchased through links found on her website.
