Darragh is a poet, an author, a public speaker, and a mental health advocate.
We chat about so many important topics in this episode, including:
How Daragh's passion for mental health advocacy started through the loss of his friend to suicide
His own personal struggles with depression
Emotional numbness and repressed emotion
How creativity saved him
Building a mental health routine
Normalising conversations about mental health
How raw, authentic, and vulnerable conversation with others is so important and also so healing
His experience with being blackmailed for nudes and how he dealt with it
How Daragh unintentionally realised he had ADHD and how it affects him
'Let The Light Pour In'
The thing I love most is his openness and willingness to help others by sharing his story so beautifully.
His poems have me in tears on the regular… so raw, so authentic, so beautiful, and so relatable. He actually reads one of his poems at the end of this episode.
Daragh and I connected online about 8 years ago and finally met in person for the first time … it did not disappoint!
