Are You Strong Enough for Yachting?

About this episode

The episode explores the concept of strength in yachting and how mental health influences this perception.

Working on board yachts is tough. We expect crew to be physically and mentally 'strong'. But what is 'strength', and how has our approach to mental health changed the way we view strength? Join Seas the Mind co-founder Emma Ross, as we discuss what it takes to be a yachtie and the different approaches we all use to cope with onboard demands. Does one method make us 'stronger' than others?
