Conversation with Frank King, 12x TEDx speaker and "The Mental Health Comedian"
from Five Building Blocks of Recovery®
In this episode I talk with Frank King about how he takes care of his mental health through the lens of Building Block 2 (Having a Self-Care Plan) and Building Block 1 (Basic Stability). Frank talks about his five-part self-care plan and how he uses “gamification” to motivate him to stay consistent with his self-care practice. He also talks about the importance of having a schedule/structure and relying on his “pit-crew” of non-clinical support in his life.*trigger warning Frank and I do talk about suicide in this episode*this episode was published when the podcast was titled "Five Pillars of Recovery" and before the name change to "Five Building Blocks of Recovery"If you want to get in touch with Frank, his website is Frank King | Suicide Prevention Speaker | Mental Health ComedianDisclaimer: Guest views and offerings are their own.
