Join me as I speak with Ron Sours, a strength coach, host of the podcast "Don't Mind Me, I just have ADHD" and a passionate mental health advocate. In this powerful interview, Ron shares his personal journey of overcoming homelessness and addiction to reclaim his life.

This episode is for anyone navigating the challenges of ADHD, depression and social isolation, especially men over 40. Ron discusses his transformative coaching program, which uses a unique approach called Mindfulness-Based Strengths Practice (MBSP) and Fierce Kindness to help people reconnect with their purpose.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

+The importance of emotional exploration and "sitting with" your feelings as a form of self-healing.

+Why asking for help is the greatest source of strength and a key to true resilience.
