Hello! Charley and Colin here. It's our podcast birthday! One year ago, we launched Brave Your Day - episode 1 with musician and composer Brian McAlpine. To celebrate our anniversary, we're looking back on two previous conversations with guests Ashton Applewhite and Ross Muir, and a discussion recorded during the initial COVID-19 lockdown on stamina. We're also exploring 'mental health for all' - the theme of this year's World Mental Health Day (10th October).Online resources: https://braveyourday.com/free-bravery-resources/World Mental Health Day (10th October): https://www.mentalhealth.org.uk/campaigns/world-mental-health-dayAshton Applewhite: https://thischairrocks.comRoss Muir: https://rossmuirart.comREAD columns by Charley and Colin in West End Today: http://glasgowwestend.today/columnist/charley-colin-gavigan/Join the Brave Your Day Bravehearts Club: www.patreon.com/braveyourdayFor more information about Brave Your Day, please visit: www.thebiglight.com/braveyourday  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
