Description

In this episode of The Way Forward – A Kindness Mission, we're joined by author, ADHD coach, and speaker Alex Hey for a powerful conversation on transforming adversity into growth. Alex shares how practices like gratitude, daily movement, spiritual grounding, and childlike wonder helped him shift from depression to joy.

We explore:

  • How to cultivate goodness by seeking it out
  • Why what you pay attention to grows
  • The role of kindness, movement, and routine in managing ADHD and supporting mental health
  • How Mr. Rogers’ sense of play brought lightness and fun back into Alex’s daily life
  • How faith and spiritual practices became a grounding force for his well-being
  • And the advice he’d give his younger self: “Be content where you are, because you are where you need to be.”

This episode is a reminder that kindness toward yourself and others isn’t just nice. It’s transformational, and it starts with small, steady choices that bring calm, joy, and meaning to everyday life.
