And if it has, well I hope you’re ready for it to get even better… because today we have none other than Finn Prevett as a special guest!

Quotes

• “What I think is quite difficult when you're living with a mental illness like bipolar, is that people tend to just see the really confident side of you and don't necessarily see that like real depression.”
• “We just got to the stage where it was just, it was so hard to make money. It was so hard to grow it.”
• “I did find that very difficult, it made me feel, you know, lots of negative things, a failure, not good enough, all of this, but I do look at it now and see the successes from it.”
• “I come first and, you know, I don't need to be the martyr trying to do everything anymore.”
• “And then suddenly you realise, but I'm, that, I'm not that person anymore. I'm never going to get back to myself, because myself is different now.“
• “You know those times where you suddenly just think ‘I don't really know who I am anymore?’ That's what The Positive Planner is really good for.”
