035: Mental Health Matters with Mac Videography

Tickets for our next Branding & Marketing workshop are now live and available at: https://spiceweddingfilms.com/podcastTuesday 19th November 2024 at Cosy Club, Guildford: 10am-5pm.This week we’re back with another incredible guest and a topic that we feel isn’t discussed enough in a public forum like this.Mike from Mac Videography is a Kent based film maker and previous winner of the prestigious TWIA’s UK Videographer of the Year award. But despite running a successful business, winning awards and shooting weddings in amazing venues, Mike (as with many of us too,) has still had his share of struggles with overwhelm, burnout and anxiety from the pressures of doing this job.As you’ll hear in the episode, Mike kindly shares some great tips for how he’s managed to overcome this and find balance between work, family life and happiness.We’re both so grateful to Mike for coming on the podcast and open up so candidly and honestly about this sensitive subject. We hope this conversation stands as an education piece to those who are fairly new to the industry and a lifeline to others who may be having similar thoughts at this point in the season and know they’re not alone. We’re far from mental health experts and always suggest that if you are seriously struggling, then please seek professional help, but when Mike approached us with this subject for the episode, we were both in 100% agreement that it was a conversation that is much needed and hope will be a comfort and help to you.
