I broke our road 🫣This morning we had no water 💦This afternoon this happened 😲It got me thinking about how I manage me!Sometimes stuff happens.Things break, that are out of our control.It can affect other people.Or mean we have to divert plans ↩️When this happens...Who are you turning to?Are you a closed road when it comes to help 🛑Do you go further down a big hole 🚧Or do you have a Steve from United Utilities?Who understands your problem 👌And is there to help you 🔨Even when you don't know what to do next.Thanks to Steve I don't smell anymore 👃Who's your Steve?#PoweredByMates

Would you like to hear me talk more 💬Good grief son...you talk enough 😲Interested...tell me more 😉 Very simply I love what we do ❤️ And I thrive talking to people about it.What I've realised (more recently)Is that I'm pretty good at engaging a room.In a topic that can often disengage.Maybe it's the three stripe ///Or the Burnley accent 🤔Whatever it is, it's helping people.To start conversations about mental health.To support themselves and each other.In the good times and the not so good.Think TED talk, meets stand up, meets your favourite gig - with BONUS impact.If this sounds interesting I'd love a chat ☕ Equally hook me up with any contacts. Let's get the mental health conversation started.#PoweredByMates
