#70 A Promise of Survival with Shane Cradock

We’ve all gone through tough times, but have you ever gotten so low that you just wanted to give up? This week, Finola chats with leading performance coach Shane Cradock. Shane courageously opens up about his battle with depression and his remarkable journey towards recovery, including how a chance conversation with his father became the turning point that led him to seek help, ultimately saving his life. 

Throughout the discussion, Shane delves into the presence of an inner voice that often criticises and judges and urges you to recognise this inner voice as part of your inner world but not your true self. Understanding and managing this inner voice is crucial for cultivating a healthy mindset and overcoming self-destructive thoughts. Throughout his story, Shane reminds us of the power of support and self-care and offers invaluable lessons for anyone facing their own mental health struggles. Not only is this conversation a source of inspiration and hope, but it also reminds us that even in the darkest moments, there is always a glimmer of light. Key points throughout include:  

  • A fighting spirit: Behind the scream of a warrior 
  • Combating a downward spiral of depression
  • Coping with struggle: Taking tangible steps to manage your inner world 
  • The road to recovery and a promise of survival 
  • Unlearning negative habits and understanding how to manage your mind 
  • The importance of self-care and adapting to your current state
  • The pandemic’s impact on people’s understanding of themselves
  • How your ego lives in your mind
  • The Inner CEO: An insight into Shane’s heart and soul project 

“95% of my thinking is not worth anything. It’s just repetition because it comes from a part of my mind that’s rooted in the past and rooted in my personality. And Shane’s personality is not the real Shane.” – Shane Cradock.
