In this powerful episode of It Starts With You, Vicky O'Farrell sits down with Thomas Duncan Bell, also known as The Bipolar Businessman, for an honest and deeply personal conversation about mental health, trauma, and the pursuit of purpose.
Thomas opens up about living with a "smorgasbord" of mental health conditions including ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and more, sharing how childhood trauma shaped his self-worth and behaviours into adulthood. From standing on a train track ready to end his life, to founding Wellbeing in the Wilderness, a global initiative helping people heal through adventure, Thomas's story is one of raw pain, resilience, and transformation.
You as the listener will come away with a better understanding of how early life experiences shape adult behaviour, why performance is often mistaken for self-worth, and how discomfort can be the key to growth. Thomas offers practical insights into wellbeing, including his four-layer wellbeing pyramid, and shares how movement, presence, and human connection can rewire a fractured mind. Whether you've experienced mental health challenges or simply want to better support others, this episode will leave you inspired, informed, and reminded that no one is ever truly alone.
. "It Starts with You" podcast is available everywhere on Wednesdays every fortnight.
