157: Being Less Judgmental and Supporting Mental Health with Harry Potvin

Author: Simona Costantini March 1, 2022 Duration: 37:17

This conversation goes into mental health, men’s mental health, and suicidal ideation. If this could be a trigger for you, please keep this in mind before listening to this episode. 

 

Have you ever been in a situation where you’re unsure of how to process your emotions, and act out of alignment with your own character?

 

Except, as the years go by, it becomes more frequent, and then all of a sudden you don’t even recognize who you are anymore. 

 

Mental health challenges come in so many different forms, and in this episode with Harry Potvin, we talk about why we can be so judgmental, and how mental health challenges manifest in our everyday lives.

 

Harry is a retired varsity swimmer turned Mental Health advocate. He is also the host of the Mental Corner Podcast which is currently in the top 2% of all podcasts globally.

We all ask those big questions about contentment and purpose at some point. Happiness Happens doesn’t treat those queries as abstract philosophy, but as a practical, weekly conversation hosted by Simona Costantini. Rather than offering a rigid formula, this podcast explores the many facets of a meaningful life through dialogues with thoughtful guests from various fields. You’ll hear from psychologists, artists, thinkers, and everyday people who have found unique pathways to fulfillment. The discussions are grounded in real experience, focusing on actionable insights that go beyond simple positive thinking. Each episode feels like a deep dive into a different corner of the human experience, whether it’s examining the role of community, the pursuit of creative passion, or the quiet practice of self-acceptance. Simona guides these conversations with a genuine curiosity, making complex ideas about well-being feel accessible and personal. The result is a resource that feels both expansive and intimately useful. Tuning into this podcast is less about searching for a single secret and more about gathering a toolkit-a collection of perspectives and practices that help you define what happiness actually means in your own life. It’s for anyone who believes that a more contented life is built from a series of conscious choices and deeper understandings, one honest conversation at a time.
