23 AUG 2024 · TI S.1 Ephttps://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/3/ - Craig’s story:
Dr Craig Dearden Phillips, MBE: Childhood trauma, Meditation & Social Enterprise!
** Warning, this episode contains details of childhood trauma that some listeners may find distressing **
In this episode, host Stuart Lee welcomes Dr. Craig Dearden-Phillips, MBE, a social entrepreneur who has dedicated his life to helping others through his businesses and personal journey with mental health.
During this episode Dr. Phillips shares his experience with severe anxiety and depression, rooted in childhood trauma, and how he found healing through therapy, exercise, meditation, and a balanced diet.
He discusses the importance of mental health as a state of contentment and the absence of pain, and how it's crucial to manage the natural ebbs and flows of mental well-being.
My favourite quotes of inspiration:
"The larger point really is that not for adversity, not for all the things that have happened, we wouldn't be the people we are today, and we wouldn't be the contributors we are today."
"Facing our inner demons takes courage, but it's the first step towards healing and growth."
"Our past experiences, no matter how difficult, shape us and our contributions to the world."
A truly incredible story of resilience through the darkest of times, turning it into growth and positivity that shines a light on creating lasting change in this world whilst processing our past!
