Jimi Hunt is a mental fitness advocate. It’s a role he fell into after experiencing poor mental health and having a rock bottom moment.
His passion is sharing his lessons on resilience, growth and navigating adversity.
He is the founder of an organization called Live More Awesome and has done some huge attention-grabbing stunts to get the conversation started about mental fitness- like building the worlds largest waterslide, walking the length of New Zealand and even paddling the length of the Waikato River on an inflatable Lilo.
In this conversation, Jimi open’s up about the tools that helped him survive his toughest days, and why asking for help is the bravest step anyone can take.
This is Jimi's story. But there are tools in here that we can all use to live happier healthier lives.
It’s a conversation about connection, compassion, and finding meaning through adversity.
I hope you like it. And if you know someone who you think could benefit from listening to it, please share it.
