Episode 91--It's Not Weak to Speak with Simon Rinne, Part 2
Welcome to Part 2 of this episode with Billy and Simon Rinne. Simon is the founder of Mindful Men, a therapy practice that is dedicated to supporting men with mental illness and disability. He is also a licensed social worker.
Simon’s passion for mental health comes from living with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), depression, anxiety, and burnout throughout the last 30 years. 2022 marks 10 years since Simon finally opened up and got help for his mental illness, and he is here today to share his story and inspire other men to share theirs.
Billy and Simon discuss:
–”Footy” and “spray” and what these terms had to do with mental health
–How he feels about the term “snowflake” in the mental health space
–When it comes to fatherhood, where are men struggling based on what they share with Simon?
–Australia’s CoVid restrictions and its impact on men’s mental health
–His advice to men and their family members
