Simon Lycett: Why Nature is the Ultimate Salvation for Our Mental Health

from Headstrong

Simon Lycett has spent his life creating floral dreams for royalty and grand stages, but behind the 22-minute high-pressure "scrambles" is a man who finds his peace in the soil. In this episode of Take 10, Simon opens up about the "magical" visceral connection of flowers, overcoming imposter syndrome after being laughed at for his appearance, and why a garden is the perfect place to be alone with your thoughts. It’s a masterclass in staying grounded while working at the very top.Headstrong Take 10The world has changed, and so have we.
