Leah Barrow - Battling with Challenges

Leah Barrow, 800m Runner, Happiness and Positivity Coach at AIS Athletics UAE, and partner to Andrew McAslan, our Part I guest of our part to play in the Follicular Lymphoma Foundation's fund-raising push a fortnight ago, discussed:

- Regular checkins 
- Battling with grief
- Anxiety
- Physical symptoms
- Overcoming setbacks, challenges, and barriers
- Consistency, sustainability, positivity 
- Psychologists needing psychologists
- How we all need someone
- Exhausting all options outside of therapy 
- Holistic philosophies 
- Experiences and understanding creating approaches 
- Being a cheerleader for yourself
- Swapping 'no' to 'yes', 'I can't' to 'I can', and 'It's not possible', to 'it's possible'
- Foundations of wellbeing 
- Social media being used as a positive drive for change 
- What needs to change, and what can be done

I hope you are all inspired by this conversation; 
Leah - I admire your openness and honesty!!
