In this episode of The Burnout Recovery Podcast, host Dr. Jo Braid has an inspiring discussion with mental health advocate and endurance athlete Sally Orange, MBE. Sally and Jo met years back during their university degrees through the Royal Army Medical Corps. Sally shares how her transition from a military career, due to mental health challenges, reshaped her identity and how she now uses endurance adventures and playful fruit costumes to break the stigma surrounding mental health. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in how resilience, humour, and outdoor activity can contribute to burnout recovery and mental well-being.Resources:https://drjobraid.comwww.instagram.com/burnoutrecoverydrwww.sallyorange.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/sally-orange-mbe-95948741/ I acknowledge that I create this podcast on the traditional lands of the Wiradjuri people, who have been the custodians of this land around Orange, New South Wales, for thousands of generations. I pay my respects to Wiradjuri Elders past, present, and emerging, and recognize the continuing connection to land, waters, and culture.

This week on Inspire Change, Gunter is carrying on the conversation about masculinity redefined and the strength of empathy and connection.  Our vision is about being inclusive, emotionally intelligent and being deeply conncected to others, he will challenge those traditional myths that don't serve us anymore and  about how patriarchial conditioning shaping how we think about manhood. He will show us how to look at masculinity from a different perspective.  Gunter will tie it all back to the core principals of the Making Good Men Great movement and framework. Its about helping men to just getting by but truly being fulfilled. We start the episode with a quote:"What prepares men for totalitarian domination in the non-totalitarian world is the fact that loneliness, once a borderline experience usually suffered in certain marginal social conditions like old age, has become an everyday experience …" – From The Origins of Totalitarianism (1951) by Hannah ArendtMs. Arendt wrote that in 1951, it seems as if she had a looking glass into the future as we can how things are today.DON'T FORGET to join LEGENDS OF POWER SWOBODA-JOSEPHSON VIP Inner Circle.
