"This Is Not How My Story Ends"

At 29 years old, professional coach Andy James had lost almost everything.

His business was gone. His relationship had ended. He'd lost access to his son. He was battling severe anxiety, depression and agoraphobia.

Then one morning, standing in front of a bathroom mirror, he made a decision that changed the course of his life.

This is a small clip from a much longer conversation we recorded together.

The first half of the 80min interview is now available on YouTube and covers mental health, resilience, identity, recovery and what it really takes to rebuild your life when everything falls apart.

Life can hit hard sometimes.

Stress. Setbacks. Losing momentum.

That’s why Cam, Omar and I are launching the Fight Back Project 🥊

We’re sponsoring 1-2 people for a 13 week boxing journey focused on rebuilding physically and mentally.

This isn’t about finding the best fighter. It’s about giving someone an opportunity to fight their way forward again.

If you’re serious about changing your situation, DM me “FIGHT BACK” and we’ll send you the application details.

Most people don’t need more advice…
they need something that actually helps on a bad day.

I’ve just released my full Tackling Depression series - real tools, not just talk.

It’s free inside the Talking With Tom community (first 100 members).

Most people don’t talk about this properly.

This was from a street interview - and it turned out he works in mental health too.

Which probably explains why this hit a bit differently.

What do you think?

“The price of freedom takes its toll…”

A colleague sent me their unreleased track - Warriors Without a Home

It’s about ex-service people who come back changed…
and sometimes with nowhere to go.

This part stuck with me.

What do you think?

Ever tried to explain depression…
and felt like no one really got it?

That’s not your fault.

Sometimes it’s not about talking more -
it’s about people understanding better.

Sneak peek from an upcoming video in my series.

This one’s for anyone who’s struggled to be understood.

Last night I forgot to take my medication.

Slept badly.

Woke up feeling rough.

Mood’s off. Energy’s low.

It’s easy to overlook the basics when things are going well.

But this is the reality:

small habits → big impact

For me, sleep and medication aren’t optional extras.

They’re foundations.

Today’s just a reminder:

Look after the basics, even when you feel “fine”.

Because it catches up with you when you don’t.

You’re not trying to eliminate it.

You’re trying to reduce it.

That’s a much more realistic place to start.
