**Contains frank talk of mental health & addiction issues that may be triggering to some people**
Mark White has held many titles over the years: father, husband, son, brother, CEO/founder, ideas man, but above all, he is a firm believer in not attaching himself to any particular label: “I am a human being first and what comes with that is my expectation around how I will be able to take on the different roles life has presented me and where my curiosity will continue to lead me.”
Mark is the founder of a company called Your Town which has live “community up” initiatives/campaigns across various UK towns, including Your Town Runners. In addition to launching Run Grateful, he recently created and founded MEUS, which is a platform to reimagine men’s health in order to support them physically, mentally, and spiritually. In 2019, Mark was voted in the top 15 social entrepreneurs in the UK by Redbull.
To keep things interesting, Mark is a children’s book author, having released Dumbleby Forest - centred around a world where children send their dunnies when they are ready to let them go.
Key points from the interview:
How Mark started a movement for mens health- physical, mental, emotional and spiritual during lockdown, and how fast it has grown. 60 countries!
How gratitude and movement are connected- or if they are weren't they are now.
How gratitude and the positive emotions renew, regenerate and are darn good for you!
How there is science based evidence for this
The funniest definition of "Woo Woo" that you almost definitely will ethically steal and use in conversation!
