Mindset coach, motivational speaker and mental health advocate, Trish Duke joins the show today to talk through how the last two and a half years have seen her deep dive into strengthening her knowledge of our mind, thoughts and beliefs. Listen in and join them both as they discuss the traits of introverts, how you can help yourself overcome your toughest mental battles and why comparison is the thief of all your joy.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Many years ago, mental health had a huge stigma around it and many people felt embarrassed to share their feelings with others, including medical professionals. Mental health was not treated the same way as other illnesses, however you should not be embarrassed about what you feel or felt in the past. What you have experienced has made you who you are today and you are a better person because of it.

• Being an introvert is wanting to be invited to things, but not wanting to go anywhere. It is being lonely at home and not wanting anyone in your space, unless you really like them. Even if you really like them, you want them to go home soon. Being aware of this is important for people to understand, so they can identify it in themselves or in others, and help to make those who feel like this more comfortable in their own space and at social events.

• Moving on from mental health illness can be difficult, you could play the victim and feel sorry for yourself, but there is no power in that, and there is no power in sympathy. If you are in bad form, think about what you can do today to help yourself. You cannot expect somebody else to fix you, whilst they can support and guide you , you have to do that work and empower yourself to feel stronger and better within yourself. 

• Don’t compare yourself with other people you know or see online. If you feel like someone is achieving more than you, don’t pit yourself against them, they are in a different place than you. You are facing your own challenge and you cannot compare yourself with anybody because you do not know where they are in their journeys.

• When you are happy being yourself, only then will you know that you can do anything you put your mind to. It doesn't matter how old you are, you are never too old to try something. If there are still things that you wish to achieve, get into the frame of mind where you know you can achieve it, and find out how to do it.

BEST MOMENTS

“I want to share my knowledge.”

“I just want you to be you, I am so happy to be me.”

“Why do you want to bounce back, when you can bounce forward?”

“There is so much that I am, that I am not even aware of.”

“There is no power in sympathy.”

“We can only help ourselves.”
