Kicking The Door Down

Kicking the Door Down with Rachel Ashe MBE, Mental Health Swims

Debbie Airey Season 1 Episode 5

Welcome Rachel Ashe MBE to Kicking the Door Down. Rachel explains her personal journey when creating Mental Health Swims and why the group has become so popular. Both Rachel and I discuss our experiences with mental health, our diagnosis's, stigma and how "water" has helped us explore our own emotions. 

We explore the reasons as to why being in your "swimming cossie" provides a safe space to talk openly and how one conversation can spark a new way of life. 

Mental health is a huge title, with many differing forms. Rachel has created an amazing community for those experiences difficulties, or those close to people suffering.  I encourage anyone to log on to mental health swims, on any of the social media platforms for more information.
