AMJ Blog
I have been writing a blog for some time. I use it to share my experiences and views on mental health – I had a breakdown in 2014/15 and live with depression and anxiety – and work life balance. I am passionate about working on my wellbeing and helping others to achieve and maintain the right work life balance and wellbeing approaches for them. My blog – along with my Twitter feed – comes with one health warning – if you read it you may have to hear about some of my other passions – my family, golf, Liverpool FC, communications, the Boston Red Sox, politics and the West Wing.
I wish I’d been more mental heath aware before I hit the wall.

Going away is no holiday for me
Talking often helps you spot what is staring you in the face
Philip Schofield, Frankie Bridge, you and me
Life is tough at the moment but that’s ok
Listening to what some people say about mental health, it’s no wonder I’m depressed!
Control freaks; dishwashers and Prince Harry
2020 vision is all about me
My annual December downer
Learning to be selfish could make all the difference
