Series 2 - Episode 6 Cultivating Good Mental Health with Lee Pycroft

As we approach the end of the year it’s safe to say that many of us are taking stock on an extraordinary year and reflecting on what it’s meant for us. Looking after our mental health should always be a priority, but this year it feels to me to be even more pressing. In today’s conversation, I talk to psychotherapist Lee Pycroft about ways in which we can cultivate good mental health, because sometimes understanding a little more about what we need as humans to be emotionally healthy can have a profound impact on how we move through difficult times. Lee’s story is fascinating, as she started her career as a high profile makeup artist working with A list celebrities, but after going through some mental health challenges, she started an initiative that used makeup and beauty therapies to help support the well-being of people in the vulnerable sectors. She’s since trained as a psychotherapist, and offers a diverse skill set that supports people to feel at their best inside and out. But I’ll leave it to Lee to share the full story on the wonderful work she’s doing in the podcast, as well as offering guidance and advice on simple measures we can take to look after our mental health.
