It is always a good time when I have a rich and robust conversation with another man who has learned to be open and honest with his emotions and feelings. Another dad and husband that is working hard every day to show his friends and family an authentic version of himself so he can lead an open and honest life. That man is Tony Hardman. Tony Hardman is the founder of Not Quite Zen, a blog and podcast focused on providing mental health support from the perspective of a survivor. Tony has struggled with severe depression, anxiety, and anger since he was a child. Cursed with a family history of mental health issues and early childhood trauma, finding a path to calm was a journey 35 years in the making. Now, he shares his experience through Not Quite Zen in hopes that he can help others learn how to get better faster.
