Loneliness and moving out of our comfort zones.

Navigating Change and Connection.In this episode, Makomberero Kasipo, a registrar in psychiatry, explores the impact of remote working post-pandemic, discussing how the convenience of online work can sometimes come at the cost of deeper and more meaningful professional relationships. James Southwood, a clinical psychologist, examines the challenges of stepping out of our comfort zones and embracing life’s transitions. He emphasises the importance of moving forward in a safe and structured way, rather than resisting change or diving into the unknown without preparation. Together, Mako and James share insights on building the courage to progress in both personal and professional life. They discuss the importance of reaching out to others, listening to our emotions, and rejecting the unrealistic expectation that happiness should be constant. This episode is hosted by Nina Kelly, CEO of Safe New Futures, a charity dedicated to supporting individuals in overcoming mild to moderate mental health challenges and transitioning into employment, education, or training.  For more information about our charity, our programmes, and how we can support you, visit Safe New Futures - Safe New Futures Email communications @safe.org.uk  Phone 02380 179590
