My Story

To start Pressure Build, I thought I’d put myself in the hot seat. I talk openly about my own experiences, the pressures I’ve carried, the things I’ve struggled with and some of the moments that have changed how I see life, work, relationships and myself. It’s a personal conversation about what happens when the pressure starts to build, and what can happen when you finally start talking about it. Disclaimer: This show is a conversation starter, something to listen to that might resonate. It is not a counselling service or medical advice. Crisis information: In the UK, NHS guidance directs people needing urgent mental health help to NHS 111, and Samaritans can be contacted free on 116 123. (nhs.uk) If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 999. Sources for the figures in the intro: Mental Health Foundation; Samaritans; NHS England Digital.
