Episode Don't dog your mates | Tommy Herschell on building your "pit crew" & the mates who saved him

0:00 55:53

This week I'm joined by Tommy Herschell, founder of Find Ya Feet and one of the great storytellers .

Tommy has spent years helping young people, sporting clubs and workplaces have better conversations around mental health, vulnerability and looking after the people around us.

It's a funny, honest and powerful chat that starts with me trying to understand Tommy's slang and hopefully ends with you putting in that phone call to your mate.

We talk:

• What Find Ya Feet is all about • Why Tommy lives by the motto "Don't dog your mates" • The mates who changed Tommy's life and became part of his "pit crew" • Whether your therapist should be treated like a mechanic or a panel beater • Stories and lessons from Tommy's workshops around Australia • Life as a "chalkie" before Find Ya Feet • Why making the call to a mate can change everything • The power of vulnerability and showing up for the people around you

A heads up, this episode discusses some heavy topics, including domestic violence and suicide. Please look after yourself while listening.
