About this episode
Andy Baines-Vosper carries a 24.7kg bag to every conversation he has about mental health. The weight is the point.
He's been through drug addiction, infertility, burnout, depression, and suicidal thoughts. For years he carried all of it quietly, until asking for help became the only option — and the best one he ever took. He now works as a Senior Project Manager at Samaritans and has set himself a mission to inspire one million people to share the weight they've been carrying alone.
This episode covers the moment Andy stopped hiding, how vulnerability became his strength, and why connection is the only real cure.
