What does emotional health mean to you?
Emotionally Speaking is a podcast focused on finding strategies for living an emotionally healthy life.
Peter Leonard, the Chief Executive of the Centre for Emotional Health asks a range of guests to describe a particular challenge they have faced and to share their coping mechanisms for emotionally challenging experiences - anxiety, stage fright, loneliness, addiction, fatigue, family difficulties and clinical depression.
Their challenges could be ongoing, or in the distant past. Each guest talks reflectively about its impact. As the podcast grows, the emotional toolkit gets bigger with suggestions and advice that might work for you.
Emotional health is related to but different from mental health. Good emotional health can help you manage periods of poor mental health as well as the ups and down of everyday life. So, if you’re interested in living a more emotionally healthy life or want to know more about coping in difficult times, Emotionally Speaking will help you understand your emotions, how you relate to your emotional self, and other people.
Presented by Peter Leonard, Chief Executive of the Centre for Emotional Health
Produced by Freya Hellier and Alexandra Quinn for Loftus Media

Writer and coach Andrew Kauffmann was raised in a loving family, but as a young, gay man in the early 90s, he struggled with self-acceptance and his mental health. He sought the approval of his dad, but felt like he could never quite measure up. When his mum died aged only 50, his family constellation was forever changed. Then later, as an adult, Andrew made a life changing sacrifice to extend his father’s life.
Andrew’s path through adulthood is defined by the challenges, joys, devastation and transformational power of parental relationships, and he shares his inspiring and thoughtful story with Peter Leonard.
