We’ve got a great chat with Mark England, co-founder and head coach of Enlifted, about the profound value of silence, solitude, and the power of storytelling in our minds.

We explore how these elements contribute to personal growth and well-being, delving into effective techniques such as full-sentence journaling and mindful breathing.

Mark shares his insights from his personal experiences and 17 years of professional practice, providing practical advice for managing the internal narrative and becoming more comfortable with oneself.
