    The MYH Podcast Weekly Checkin Episode 8

    Hello everyone, and welcome back to another episode of The MYH Podcast, a podcast focused on mental health and wellbeing in the UK construction industry. I know I keep trying to make this work, and as you will hear in this episode, I have let things slip a little. Life has been busy, and sometimes it can be difficult to keep everything moving in the right direction. But I wanted to sit down, have a proper catch up with you all, and share what has been happening behind the scenes. In this episode, I talk openly about where I am at the moment, what I have been up to, and what is coming next. I also share a little about an early morning start on Friday, some of the plans I have for the future, and exciting changes to the way I am going to be working. I also talk about the exciting plans for a brand new website, which will bring together more of the work I am doing to support mental health and wellbeing across the construction industry. The MYH Podcast is all about real conversations, real stories and real experiences from people connected to the construction industry. Whether you are a builder, bricklayer, tradesperson, contractor, site manager, construction professional or simply someone who wants to improve their mental health, I hope this podcast gives you something to think about and reminds you that you are not alone. If you enjoy this episode, please take a moment to LIKE, FOLLOW or SUBSCRIBE to The MYH Podcast and, most importantly, SHARE this episode with someone who might need to hear it. Sharing the podcast helps us reach more people across the construction industry who may be struggling with their mental health, dealing with stress, anxiety, burnout or simply finding life a bit difficult. Together, we can help break the stigma around mental health in construction, start more conversations and build a stronger, healthier industry.

    The MYH Podcast Weekly Checkin Episode 7

    Weekly Check-In Podcast | Episode 2 – 2026 Hi everyone and welcome to the second Weekly Check-In of 2026 — and I’ve done a bit better this time… it’s only been two weeks since the last one. This episode has been a mixed one. There have been some real highs, including talking about working again with my old boss Phil and being on tour with Dale. But I also open up about something much harder — losing a friend over Christmas and how that’s been impacting me. As always, this is a real and honest check-in. I also remembered to add a song for you to listen to this week, so go and check that out and let me know what you think. I talk about the recent name change, why I made that decision, and share plenty more reflections along the way. If you’d like to ask me anything or share your thoughts, you can email 📩 Askmyhpodcast@gmail.com or drop us a message on Instagram. Thank you, as always, for listening and supporting the podcast. Please feel free to share this episode wherever you think it might help someone.

    Weekly Check-In Podcast | Episode 1 – 2026 Welcome to the first Weekly Check-In Podcast of 2026 — and the first episode in over four months (sorry… life happened). In this episode, I catch up with you and share a real, honest update on what’s been going on behind the scenes. I talk about moving house, how I’ve been feeling lately, and why working too hard for too long can be damaging to our mental health. I also reflect on the importance of slowing down, checking in with ourselves, and finding a healthier balance between work and wellbeing. I finish the episode by sharing some plans, intentions, and hopes for the year ahead — both personally and with the podcast. This weekly check-in podcast is all about honest conversations, mental health awareness, and reminding you that you’re not alone. I forgot to add the song of the week! i will add that on the next one! you can send your questions in to Askmyhpodcast@gmail.com it would be great to hear from you! 🎧 New year. Fresh perspective.

    The MYH Podcast Weekly Checkin Episode 5

    This week’s checkin is a little different, instead of work and long drives, it’s been all about family. I’ve had the boys with me all week and we’ve packed in bike rides, camping (even if it was just outside the flat!), football, laughs, and plenty of food stops. It’s been a busy one in a whole new way, and I’ve loved every minute of it. I talk about the highs and challenges of being a dad, what I’ve been learning about myself through therapy, and why this week has felt like real progress. Plus, I’m introducing a new feature: my Song of the Week. This time it’s Killeagh by Kingfishr which you can also find on the brand-new Weekly Check-in playlist on Spotify. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3lRUKZIHVaFRUyIL5QEuTY?si=cb3e4fb3d7d84be4 Thanks for listening and for your continued support ,enjoy the episode and don’t forget to share how your week has been too! you can send your questions in to Askmyhpodcast@gmail.com it would be great to hear from you! #MYHPodcast #WeeklyCheckIn #FamilyTime #ConstructionCommunity #ParentingJourney #Fatherhood #QualityTime #WorkLifeBalance #TherapyJourney #MentalHealthInConstruction #PositiveParenting #BikingAdventures #CampingLife #MentalHealthAwareness #LetsGetTalkin

    The MYH Podcast Weekly Checkin Episode 4

    This week’s check-in is packed with road trips, family time, and a few big reflections. From driving across the country for the Lighthouse, to a father-and-son adventure in Scarborough with fish and chips, camping, and plenty of laughs, it’s been non-stop! I also wrap up my latest round of therapy and share some of the lessons I’ve learned about looking after myself while making time for the people who matter most. It’s been busy, it’s been memorable, and it’s another reminder that balance is everything. Grab a brew, tune in, and let’s catch up! #MYHPodcast #WeeklyCheckIn #MentalHealthInConstruction #ConstructionCommunity #Scarborough #OnTheRoad #FamilyTime #FatherAndSon #TherapyJourney #WellbeingAtWork #ConstructionLife #PositiveMindset #MentalHealthAwareness #UKConstruction #LetsGetTalkIn

    The MYH Podcast Weekly Checkin Episode 2

    Episode 2 – Weekly Check-In | Gardening, Therapy & Punctures In this solo episode of The MYHP Weekly Check-In, I’m catching you up on everything that’s gone on this week – from road trips and Rachel’s birthday to gardening, therapy, and a whole load of bike punctures. I talk about how gardening has become a big part of slowing down and finding balance in my life, why I sometimes struggle to see progress in my work now compared to my bricklaying days, and how therapy continues to help me make sense of things. I also share a moment of realisation from a recent session, and why I’m taking a short break to reflect and rebuild. There’s some frustration too – like Thursday being a write-off after audio issues with the main podcast edit, but getting out on the bike helped turn things around. Thanks for all your continued support and feedback – it means the world.

    Hi Everyone this is a new section i am trying out. i thought it would be a good idea for me to do a weekly check in with you all. i really enjoy making this style of podcast and the last solo episode went down so well, i thought why not! don't worry the full podcasts will still be done! I'm going to talk about how my week has been and what i have been upto. i will realise them on a friday at about 15:30 for your drive home or where ever you go on a friday after work. i want you all to get involved with the episodes but i won't be promoting them across all the other social media and they will be audio only so they are nice and quick to turn around. Also its a bit of a thank you to all of the people that have downloaded the podcast and message me about the pod saying how you enjoy the audio on the drive to and from work. Speaking of messages i have set up a new email address just for this section of The MYH Podcast. if you want me to talk about anything or replay to anything i have spoken about on an episode i would love to hear from you. askmyhpodcast@gmail.com hope you all enjoy this little section and i look forward to hearing from you all soon. thanks Rob #themyhpodcast #myhp #letsgettalkin
