In the lead up to R U OK? Day, I have invited Jordan Schmidt of Modern Mentality to talk to us about his challenges and provide tips on how to address mental health from a young man’s perspective. Jordan is like a nephew to me as I have known him most of his life and have witnessed firsthand the many life changing moments he has had to endure, and yet through each obstacle, I’ve witnessed Jordan pick himself up, and grow stronger. In this episode, Jordan will share his story and discuss the new journey he is taking, which is not only inspirational but exactly what society needs. If you are interested in taking part in Jordan's Modern Mentality workshops, please visit www.modernmentality.com.au. Jordan’s first workshop starts on Wednesday 30 August. R U OK? Day is on Thursday 14 September this year.
