ADAM SMITH: Progress, Patience and Building from Rock Bottom

Today I am joined by Mindset Coach from the A-Game Consultancy,  Adam Smith. Adam spent the majority of his twenties in the North of England working in Hospitality at some of the most prestigious bars in the North. His decade consisted of living in various cities, travelling for 4 months, having 2 long term relationships, being a best man twice, and by his late twenties was nationally recognised in the bar he managed. Adam’s twenties were adventurous and adrenaline fuelled, but, like many of us, not without adversity. Adam also attended over 15 funerals throughout the course of the decade, and after a time struggling himself also attempted to commit suicide. 18 months ago Adam decided a change was needed, he left the only career he knew in hospitality and started up the A Game Consultancy with two other well-being professionals, both also conveniently called Adam, and is now attempting to be the man he always knew he could be, driven by a desire to help others avoid the same pain he experienced.Adam’s honesty, vulnerability and empathy when discussing topics like mental health and suicide contributes to why he is widely considered such a profound and effective mindset coach. In his words, My twenties were a balance of crying myself to sleep and laughing until my cheeks hurt. I look back with compassion, understanding, regret, humour and so much more’. Our favourite Millennial Minesweeper quote this week was; '‘The best of life exists beyond everything we are meant to feel bad about lacking’ -  Matt Haig. *TRIGGER WARNING* - This episode includes references to and details of depression and suicide.
