In this weeks episode Ben Woodruff and Darren Clarkson revisit a discussion around something very current in both the world of paddling and the world overall; mental health and well-being. Currently 1 in 4 people experience various mental health conditions in the UK annually. In the episode we discuss mental well-being, what to do if someone opens up to your about your mental health, the phrase "man-up" and why it is important to look after your mental well-being as a paddlesport practitioner. Before you listen just a pre-warning: on this podcast we discuss some sensitive subjects around mental health, with some things that may be triggers for those suffering mental health conditions. It’s an important conversation that’s becoming more and more pertinent, but please only listen if you can.
