I really recommend this open and honest conversation between Tony from Cheshire Wellness & Mental Fitness CIC and Naomi Dake where they dive into mental health, mindfulness, and the small but powerful things we can all do to improve the quality of our lives.
Podcast Episode 8 is out now!
What an honour to chat with the amazing Tony Grimes and to listen to and share his own story. This lovely human is a true gentleman, the kindest and most humble of souls who has dedicated his life to helping and supporting other people.
Over 6 years ago, he founded and runs the Cheshire Wellness and Mental Fitness CIC group, as well as a number of other voluntary activities he undertakes. Every week he creates an open, welcoming space for people who need it in the community and this really has been life-changing for many people.
It was my privilege to get to shine a light on him for a change and to be able to listen to his own reflections, learning, experiences and wisdoms.
Even though I knew quite a bit of Tony's story, I certainly didn't know it all and listening to him share it so honestly and humbly, has filled me with genuine inspiration and awe at what he has been able to do (and continues to do for others) despite continuing to navigate horrendous chronic pain himself.
I'd really recommend giving it a listen, I believe there's value and wisdom for each of us in here.
The gift of mindful grace and loving kindness, taking your own power back, the choice of mindset, being fully present in your life to yourself and others - these are just some of the things we talk about in the Podcast episode with Tony. I hope you enjoy it and find it as inspiring and helpful as I have.
And feel free to share it with someone who you think may benefit.
We would love to hear how it resonates with you, any thoughts and feedback you have that you're willing to share - please feel free to comment or get in touch.
And lastly, a big thank you to you Tony - for being the wonderful human we all know you are. ⭐ 💜
