Summary

In this episode of The Jordan Syatt Mini-Podcast, I have a frank conversation with my trusty podcast producer, Tony, about mental health. I talk about my struggles with anxiety and how I tried everything from quitting alcohol, increasing cardio, and going to therapy before I made the decision to try medication. I also discuss the effects of social media and the prevalence of an increasingly online society, why loneliness is an epidemic, some of the more common struggles I see in the health and fitness community around mental health, and why I wish that more people would have empathy for those around us, especially in online settings that can be so cruel. If you have any questions you want us to discuss on the podcast, give Tony a follow and shoot him a DM on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tone_reverie/ . I hope you enjoy this episode and, if you do, please leave a review on iTunes (huge thank you to everyone who has written one so far). Finally, if you've been thinking about joining The Inner Circle but haven't yet... we have hundreds of home and bodyweight workouts for you and you can get them all here: www.sfinnercircle.com.
