VS LIFE

VS LIFE SURVIVE | STRIVE | THRIVE I can't explain what VS LIFE is without telling you about who I am. I'm Tyler Slade. Foremost I'm a father and husband.

I strongly believe that mental and physical fitness go hand in hand. To me this balance is fundamental for my health and wellbeing as well as being there and showing up for those that are important to me. Almost 8 years ago I was on the edge of taking my own life. It was a cry for help. I had a stark realization that the only person who could really save me, was me. That's not to say that there isn't support & help out there, I took it step by step, first by being vulnerable & letting down the mask, then taking action towards change...

Now with 6 years+ experience working with thousands of people to facilitate, help, support and guide them to a healthier, happier life. Qualifications I hold include:

Advanced MI (Motivational Interviewing) practitioner
Certificated CBT trained
Level 4 Nutrition Diploma
Fully trained in Mental Health First Aid and First Aid
Sports Therapy diploma

My intention was to post this on Tuesday 🤦‍♂️ yet my priority & promise to my two boys was I’d ensure I’d be switched off & give them my focus, attention & energy.

I reckon us men leave things to the last minute anyway 😜 so TONIGHT Thursday 19th Feb meet up in gets your tickets - link in my stories or copy this somehow?

In addition to my ‘10 minutes with Tyler’ where tonight’s theme has been chosen by my two sons (don’t worry it’s not Fortnite or peeing in a tango bottle), I’ve got the honour of asking the questions to our superb quest Matt Garman.

So if your a bloke & want an alternative evening out then lean into your curiosity & courage, grab a ticket for the price of a pint now, that link again 😉❤️👊

Very much in two minds with posting this. I know my intentions are from love and so I listened to that.

The other week I spent an evening with a large room of Dads & Lads who all chose to be there. Every one of these men seriously pushing the comfort to listen & learn about the biggest killer of our age group.

Honestly, I was worried that attending might be triggering. A decade ago I was experiencing severe suicidal thoughts which took me to the very edge. Everyone knows someone that has ended their own lives. It’s devastating.

delivered a super impactful & useful workshop. An opportunity to flex the listening reflex which by default for us men isn’t natural - we want to fix, find solutions & just crack on with s***
(I’ve shared the listening wheel, something they use & we got to practice).

The recent campaign by provides a perspective that so many of us men can relate to. It’s proper f****** powerful (I’ve taken a clip here but search for it & watch it all).

I’m proud to be part of this inspiring community & my hope is that many other men’s communities follow suit.

😉❤️👊

I’m loving what I’m creating with VS LIFE. This doesn’t mean it’s not hard bloody work.

I truly believe in order to show up you have to embody it fully. Which is also bloody tiring. And yet the wonderful fact is it actually helps. Not just for the Dads & Lads that get involved but for me too.

Honestly, it’s like a fu***ng magic mix which always leaves me better off than before doing it.

Have you given it a go? Curious to know how it leaves you?

😉❤️👊

Totally understand that what we do might seem mad to some people. And I guess it’s just a case of shifting perspective.

Short term rewards, long term s**t? Or short term s**t, long term rewards?

By the way, my intention here isn’t to come across judgemental. I’m certainty no saint & truth be told I’m being hypocritical as I too go for short term rewards A LOT yet they do in the most part make me feel s**t long term. Like scrolling to long on this bloody thing for a start!

Really curious to know, what do you pay for short term rewards that makes you feel s**t long term? And what do you pay for short term s**t for long term rewards?

(Does this make sense🤪)

😉❤️👊

If I was to give one tip on how to get going, get excited this year, this would be it.

Calendars on screens don’t do it for me. I want it BIG I want to manually write on it, see it every time I walk into the room!

What do you reckon, you getting one of these bad boys or what?! 😉❤️👊
