Hi Phill, just wanted to say you're doing a grand job sir. I can see that your podcast is really going to help people. I've had my moments in life too. It wasn't until I started talking to people that things did get better. I'm a qualified coach but haven't practised for a while. I am now planning to kick things off again (over the next year, anyway) and I have a blueprint around designing a course for men with mental health issues. I'll keep you updated when it eventually gets off the ground. Keep up the good work! By the way, my brother put me on to your podcast. I believe he's a mate of yours - Darren Austin. Cheers, Keith
