Sitting down and speaking with Terri - Louise Brown from Talks with MS is always a joy.

Whilst she throws out a glow of orange positivity everywhere she goes, those who know her best know there is pain behind every step she takes. In her smiles there is joy, but pain too.

Because Terri-Louise can walk, people often assume she is not disabled. Some people with MS use a walking aid or a wheel chair. This does not mean she is any less disabled.

Her charity Talks with MS helps people with MS share stories and help each other. Using each others lived experience they are supporting each other daily.

Road rage changed Andy's life completely.

He was heading for band practice, but his final destination was hospital. The prognosis was not great.

Please take note of the trigger warning around mental health at the start of this podcast as Andy is very vivid in explaining how he felt at the time.

After 6 years of surgeries, Andy got behind the wheel of a racing car which was adapted to his disability. He drove for Team Brit, but when he didn't need the hand controls any more he made the decision to racing a car without adaptions.

Now the speedster, regular beats non disabled people, which as a disabled person he takes great pride in.

Listen to the highs and the lows of Andy's story here.

Burnout sparked the end of Zane McCormack's career as a policeman.

After recovering from burnout he started speaking to colleagues and friends. Supporting them from their journey. He found himself at a cross roads in life and he chose to become a burnout coach (The Assured Man).

As a police officer Zane has seen a lot of things. Living on the opposite side of the world to his family meant there was a lack of real conversation. To top it all off the world was closing down.

Zane has researched the steps of burnout and recognises the differences between this and PTSD or CPTSD. His understanding allow him to help individuals and businesses manage burnout.

His passion with leadership and how a burntout leader can impact a team drives him to support more businesses. It's up to businesses to support their colleagues and for colleagues to feel safe to speak out about their mental health.

Zane faced adversity head on. He realised the best way to get himself out of burnout was by doing it himself. When a lot of people try to get themselves out of a situation they work harder or try harder - Zane had to work smarter !!
