Back in 2012, Josh Connolly was on the verge of planning his suicide. The pressures of daily life had become overwhelming, and his anxieties had reached a paralyzing level. However, Josh managed to find a way to embrace life and his vulnerability, and he is now one of the most influential mental health advocates in the UK.
Josh's accomplishments are impressive. He has spoken in the House of Commons, made valuable contributions to mental health policy, and even provided advice to the scriptwriting team of Channel Four's long-running teen drama, Hollyoaks. In addition, he has conducted resilience workshops for village schools and global brands, all while serving as an ambassador for Nacoa, a national charity that supports individuals affected by a parent's drinking.
Josh doesn't believe that he has become a completely different person since 2012. Instead, he understands that he no longer needs to hide his emotions. His mission now is to coach others to do the same.
