Paul McGregor: Live With Purpose - Episode 64
On this week's episode I am joined by Paul McGregor who is a mental health speaker and author.
Having lost his Dad to suicide 9 years ago, Paul has begun to dedicate his life to helping spread awareness of mental health issues and suicide rates in the UK.
He has just recently released his book 'Man Up, Man Down' which shares his story in full, with all of the details left in.
This is one of the most open conversations I have had on the podcast with a really strong message so please make sure you share it with a friend :) And be sure to leave a review on the podcast too!
