Ep. 11: Reacting To Thoughts Is A Choice with Tim Roberts
31 Plays
7 months agoIn 2018, Tim Roberts found himself in a cycle of suicidal thoughts and spent time plotting the differing ways he could die. But he also knew he was happily married, had two brilliant kids, and was in good employment. Yet this truth somehow added to his severe depression because he knew he was better off than others. So why was he feeling this way?
In the podcast, we discuss:
- The day he decided this was bullshit and his emotional intelligence kicked in.
- How he started speaking up, and how important it is to speak to somebody.
- Why even as a leadership coach specialising in emotional intelligence, he has a coach.
- Understanding the warning signs of his depression and how he avoids it.
