Wellspring 2018

If you want to do things in the outer world, you have to deal with your inner world too. If you want to serve others, you have to be operating as the best version of yourself first. If you want to achieve big, ambitious goals, then you need to make sure you're taking care of your biggest asset: your mind.

We're taught from a young age that failure is a bad thing. And that our personal problems are essentially personal failures. This adds to a stigma around mental health that is not serving us - and it is not logical: we all struggle with our mental health. The lack of thoughtful dialogue around this conversation keeps people stuck in fear, insecurity and isolation. It's time to do something different.

Join Ben and Kevin as they talk about their deepest struggles and how this led them to their greatest strengths. This unique session includes immersive storytelling and an interactive Q&A.
