Matthew Heneghan: Unfiltered

This episode contains a blog read from my most recent blog post over at amedicsmind.com. As the days get longer and the heated days of summer approach, being back home in B.C., I can't help but to ruminate just a little bit. This was one of the funniest stories that I have ever had the privilege of recording for the podcast. I hope you enjoy it. If you like my work and would like to support me and...

On this episode I may ramble a bit. But, I hope that my overall message comes through - sometimes, it's okay to not be okay - but we have to reach out for help, and it is imperative that we focus on the root causes of issues at hand - not just the symptoms. Don't forget, you can message me right here on Anchor using the "message" button located on screen! If you like my work and would like to supp...

Oh no! What the hell am I doing?! Don't worry; this is not as bad as it sounds and it's likely (hopefully) a topic that we will not have to revisit anytime soon. This is, however, likely to stir some debate - and that's fine! Debate is healthy. In fact, that's part of what I talk about in this episode. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it or at the very least, come away with something from it.  Cheers. If...

I know, I know... a little early, but this isn't exactly a traditional holiday themed post; bear with me. Anyway, on this episode I must handout a warning: the contents of this episode are heavy and some may even say tough to listen to... so, please, don't force yourself to sit through if you find something triggering. Take care of you first!

A day late but better to be late that not at all; this is my remembrance episode. Yesterday was Remembrance Day, and that always comes with a unique set of feelings and emotions for me. This year felt a little more weighted than some in the past. Have a listen, perhaps you can relate. #RemembranceDay #RememberThem #PTSD www.amedicsmind.com

This episode is dedicated to my buddy, Chris. He is no longer with us and that reality breaks my heart and the hearts of all who knew him. He was a good man. A good friend and a soul that will surely be missed.  Chris, this one's for you, bud. #PTSD #suicideprevention
