Great to be joined this week by my friend Dicky Dale!

I've known Dicky for a couple of years now, having met through windsurfing. What we didn't know about each other was our mental health struggles and stories.

Dicky spent the best part of 20 years working in the city in the finance industry, from starting out to his time on the board at Citigroup.

Dicky has vast experience and insight into what this kind of lifestyle is like. He also discussed his own mental health struggles during his career in the city, from things that helped him, to things he had to steer clear of.

An interesting point is through all his success through his career, his happy place isn't on some superyacht in St Tropez, it's windsurfing on the south coast of the UK.

One great thing Dicky touched on was that mental health doesn't discriminate. Whether you're the billionaire CEO or the new intern, you can still have issues that need to be talked about.

In my opinion this is one of the most valuable conversations I've had, especially for young, bright eyed people starting their careers in the city.

Sure times have changed since Dicky started out, and by no means is his story a 'cautionary tale'. But it's very important to prioritise happiness and whats going on in your brain.
