Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by JANE POWELL, chief executive of STAMMA!You could file this episode under "people you might not know but will be glad you now do" - it's one of those awesome episodes where Pip chats to someone who tends to steer clear of the spotlight, like many of us, but has a huge amount to share when probed just a little bit (also like many of us!). Jane launched and ran the charity CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably) who you will be familiar with if you're a long term listener of the podcast, and has come through a huge amount of awesome activism work on her journey. Working with STAMMA has proved to be a great chance to continue along similar lines, in smoothing out some of the rough edges of the world for those who stammer. For those who don't, these rough edges might never appear, but with just a slight nudge in the direction of empathy, a lot of the potential obstacles out there rapidly reveal themselves. Jane explains all this, and a huge amount more, so enjoy this absorbing and very interesting chat with Pip and Jane!PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureSTAMMAOUR TRIBE event chaired by Pip!CONTACT STAMMASTAMMA IGC.A.L.M.SPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMPIP TWITTERPIP PATREONPIP IMDBPOD BIBLE Hosted on Acast.

‘How are you?' - a question we don't ask enough, but one Simon Gunning wants us to ask more often. Ahead of World Mental Health Day, I'm joined by Simon, CEO of CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably), a charity dedicated to suicide prevention, raising awareness, and offering practical support. As an ambassador for CALM and someone who has had struggles with anxiety myself, this conversation means a lot to me, and one that is important to share.TW - this conversation contains discussion of suicide which some listeners might find distressing.There are some staggering stats about death by suicide in recent years and yet it's still such a difficult thing to talk about but charities like CALM are breaking down barriers and really shining light into a topic which can sometimes feel intolerably dark. Simon and I reflect on our relationships with our fathers, how a handshake was his only physical connection with his dad, and why these generational silences shape men's aptitudes of emotion.This episode is about why leaning into the uncomfortable can be life changing - or indeed, saving.If you, or anyone you know is affected by anything in today's episode, you can speak to Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) in confidence.

To call Stephen Fry a national treasure would be underselling him. One of the hardest working names in British media, you name it and Stephen has done it; writer, actor, director and comedian. The size of his contribution to British culture in over four decades as a public figure is staggering. However, behind this mountain of work and out of the spotlight is a side of Stephen Fry that many people will be completely unaware of, from a childhood of crime and loneliness, to severe mental health struggles and attempts at suicide. In this honest and revealing conversation Stephen discusses the scars he carries within him and which affect him to this day. But despite this he is constantly reinventing himself and striving to find joy in the smaller things in life, all the while spreading happiness and wonder with his work. Topics: Early context Credit card fraud - getting arrested Feeling like an outsider Going to Cambridge Why acting? Where happiness really comes from How can we change who we are? What has changed from the core of your younger self Lowest moment in your life Manic depression Your relationship with social media Depressive lows Why have you been successful Are we all artists? What creates a good life for you?

** First up a warning.. in this episode we talk in some detail about the topic of suicide, so if this may be triggering to you please consider this before listening. ** Nick Frendo is a mental health activist and one half of ASCND, a London based cycling mental health advocacy project. Over the last few years he's raised a ton of money and awareness around the subject of mental health through some epic rides, kit collaborations and building a platform for others to share their own mental health experiences. We talk in some detail about Nick's own battles with mental health issues and the work he's doing with ASCND to get more cyclists trained as Mental Health First Aiders. But what this podcast is really about is Nick's experience over the last week. We'd been chatting for a while about doing this podcast but after a serious mental health episode last week Nick got in touch and wanted to share what happened here on the podcast. So what follows is a very open, honest and raw account just a few days after hitting rock bottom and attempting suicide. It's incredibly brave for Nick to share this so soon after it happened, and importantly he's got the immediate help he needs in a time of crisis. To use ASCND's own tagline, he's now back on the road to respair*. * Respair is an old english word that means the return to hope after a period of despair. ASCND Website.

This sixth podcast in the CBT for Low Mood series focuses on self-criticism. It looks at why we can be so critical of ourselves and when this can become a problem, and introduces three tips and tools to help you deal with unhelpful self-criticism. These tips/tools help with defusing from critical thoughts, getting to know your inner critic, and leaning towards self-compassion. The podcast includes exercises inviting you to bring to mind times when you've been critical of yourself, and to begin to cultivate a different, more compassionate perspective towards yourself. Depression is among the most common mental health problems faced by students. In this series of podcasts, we look at what depression is and how it can impact student life, and offer some ideas and techniques to help you through it. Drawing on cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), an evidence-based approach for the treatment of depression, they provide a framework for thinking about ways in which depression and low mood can keep you stuck, and some practical tools you can try out either on your own or with the help of a counsellor. Importantly, these podcasts are not intended to be used as a replacement for counselling or therapy for those who may need it. Rather, the hope is that will give you some ideas which might be part of a process of understanding more about yourself and, ultimately, feeling better.

Simon's career began in director roles in large corporations like Virgin, EMI Music, Yahoo as well as leading agencies before starting at CALM and it was amazing to hear how the success of the charity since his take over has been largely down to running the charity like a corporate organisation, of sorts. This is an amazing CEO story and will help anyone who is running a business, pursuing their purpose, or both. Enjoy.
This week the ladies sit down to recap their week, including The Somali Week Festival and Munirah's campaign for CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably). They also discuss the controversial topic of millennial women choosing their careers over marriage and children.

Suicide is the biggest killer of men under 45 in the UK; nevertheless, a metaphorical handbrake exists whenever the ‘S’ word is mentioned. This week on Social Minds, we sit down with Simon Gunning, the CEO of CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably), who is taking a sledgehammer to the taboo of male suicide with a hard-hitting approach to advertising. We discuss the new face of corporate social responsibility (CSR), poisonous masculine stereotypes and the role data-led technology can have in saving lives.
Welcome to the Inside Yorkshire Podcast, a podcast full of stories and tales from the people of Yorkshire. On today’s episode, Susan talks with Ben Dave about his incredible Yorkshire run, the challenges he faced, and the desire to raise money and awareness for mental health that kept him going even as he faced Yorkshire's formidable terrain. Key Takeaways: Ben Dave circumnavigated Yorkshire on foot, running more than 495 miles in 18 days. Prior to this, Ben says he’s only been running seriously for three or four years and didn’t run his first real marathon until 2016. During this challenge, he was essentially running a marathon a day. His longest day was 37 miles, his shortest was 13 miles. Ben says the hardest part of the journey was tackling all the different types of terrain. His route included the tallest mountain in Yorkshire and the highest pub in England - in the same day! He would have to run through bogs and marshland, carefully picking his way across the treacherous ground with only a backpack of the bare essentials. About half the time he had people running with him, but for much of the run, he was all on his own. The aim of the Yorkshire run was to raise awareness and money for CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably). After struggling through a period of depression that left him feeling isolated, Ben wanted to create a wide platform for telling his story and starting conversations about mental health. Over the course of his run, Ben has raised over 26,000 pounds so far for CALM. He’s already prepping for his next marathon. Best Moments: “The officials' last count was 495.6 miles, I kinda wish I’d found another four miles from somewhere.” “I knew it was certainly achievable, from looking at what other people have done.” “You sort of quickly learn about the different grasses and the different reeds and where you can’t put your foot and where you can.” “At the time it felt incredibly lonely and isolating and it kind of felt like I was the only one that was going through it. And I wanted to do something to sort of publicly say that I’ve been through it because I kind of knew it would help people.” “It’s only when you open up yourself that you realize that a lot more people have trouble than own up to it, and I think the more of us that can be open about it, the less of a social stigma it is.” Valuable Resources: https://www.thecalmzone.net/ https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/runningyorkshire/ About the Host: Susan has been living in Yorkshire for over 30 years. She is passionate about the county she has adopted as her home and she never ceases to be amazed at the wealth of talent ‘Inside Yorkshire’ and the tales that people have to tell. About the Guest: This young man decided to raise awareness of men’s mental health issues by running around the boundary of Yorkshire in an effort to raise funds for mental health charity CALM. Ben is a keen runner, having run several marathons already, but had not taken into consideration the huge variety of terrain that would be involved. He set off on Yorkshire day, 1st August, and ran for 18 days - almost 500 miles in total. This is his story of one man’s epic achievement raising funds for a charity dear to his heart.

FTFO about Men's Mental Health - Part 2 - Freaking the F*ck Out is a podcast where Kelsey Bennett and Maddy Scott examine the inner workings of their anxious minds. Covering everything from the minute to the very big and life changing, they’re not mental health professionals but they do happen to have some experience in the field. In episode 9b they discuss Men's Mental Health again. Rich is back, but this time he is joined by Derek and Gully as they all open up about their own experiences with mental health. Who do they talk to when times get tough? How good are they at recognising their own emotions? Why do they talk so much about football and so little about their feelings? Lots of open, honest and wonderful chat from three excellent humans.

After a rather quiet weekend of boxing and with Martin trying on one of Andi's casual hats on after watching none of it, Terry takes the lead, Harvey's lead that is. Yep, he pretends to be Harvey at the start of the show, that's what we've sunk to. Stick around about 90 minutes in, Martin goes to the toilet and doesn't hide it at all. We do actually talk SOME sense, but not much - so above the average amount then. This week marks the first pod that we team up with CALM - Campaign Against Living Miserably in an attempt to raise awareness of male suicide. If, for ANY reason, you're struggling and having a rough time get in touch with them for full support on 0800 58 58 58 between 5pm & midnight or at thecalmzone.net DO IT, what could you possibly have to lose?! Get in touch with us three reprobates at: @newageboxinguk @the7wolves @newagepodfather

One of the UK's most revered graphic designers and creative minds of all time is arguably best known for his 'First Things First' manifesto, published in 1964. Signed by many graphic designers and artists, the purpose of the manifesto was to highlight the out-of-control consumerist society and urge creative professionals to use their talents and free time to work towards more meaningful causes that would build a better society. Books, education, anti-war efforts and charity over advertising of commercial products. Sadly, in 2016, Ken's efforts are more relevant than ever before as an undercurrent of hate and divisive politics gather momentum, whilst the environment, community and wellbeing are neglected. Having studied Graphic Activism for my dissertation, leading with the FTFM, I met Ken as part of a later charity campaign, inspired by his work and created to highlight the emotional benefits of creativity on behalf of CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably) and talked about his career, the manifesto, what it meant in the 1960s and what he thinks about the state of play today. Ken Garland, now in his mid-eighties, is still very fired up and passionate about the creative industry and world issues and serves a great example of what a difference our talents can make if applied to the right causes. http://www.designishistory.com/1960/first-things-first/ - The First Things First Manifesto http://www.kengarland.co.uk/ - Ken Garland official site http://www.thecalmzone.net.gridhosted.co.uk/ - CALM official site
