Here is the 7th episode in the Soulful Storytelling series recorded live in Cardiff on 27th January 2020. This event is about bringing people together through the powerful medium of story. We all have incredible stories inside of us that are waiting to be heard, that can entertain, touch and heal others.  

The theme for this event was ‘Men’s wellness’ and we had 2 wonderful storytellers, who shared their personal stories and pondered the questions.. 

  • ‘What does masculinity mean? 

  • ‘What stops men really taking care of their health and well-being?’ 

  • ‘What does self care look like for men?’ 

In this episode Matt O’Sullivan a personal trainer and fitness instructor shares his approach to helping people love themselves first before working on their bodies. Matt talks about his own battles with himself and how he used food as a way to cope with feelings of inadequacy. He talks about some of the barriers he’s faced when making lifestyle choices that were not seen as ‘manly’ and how he has learned to prioritise his own self care and how he teaches that to others.
