Matthew Morrisson's Path: From Diverse Careers to Mental Health Resilience
So it's a way to kind of explore things that I'm curious about or that interest me or that stand out to me in one way, shape or form.
What do food service, finance, land surveying, and the Army have in common? For Matthew Morrisson, they were all stops on a winding journey through his 20s and 30s. In this episode of 'Beyond Recovery', Matthew opens up about his battles with anxiety, depression, and addiction, and how a book he thought he'd hate led to a life-changing spiritual awakening in 2015.
Raised with an innate curiosity, Matthew's diverse career path eventually brought him to the software industry, where he discovered a passion for training others and making a positive impact. But it was woodworking that truly helped him manage his mental health struggles. Host Matt Gardiner dives deep with Matthew into the importance of shining a light on mental health issues, the therapeutic benefits of hobbies, and the power of sharing personal stories.
This episode is a heartfelt reminder that no matter where you are in life, there's always room for growth and self-discovery.
