This episode is a chat with Nick aka Harry Couldwell, father of three and Jayde’s partner. Nick was only 22 when they welcomed their first daughter into the world, safe to say he has done a lot of growing as a father, husband and individual and it’s taken many years to look back at the story of his life as a young dad. Nick sits down with Chi and talks about all things mental health related, from how to bring your mates barriers down, the ‘taboo’ topic of dad rage and how to support a partner through tough times. Nick is an absolute legend and we thank him for his time!   Resource links: Shedding some light during the darkness of depression - with Jayde and her brain   Beyond the Balls is a fatherhood podcast brought to you by Jayde Couldwell and Chi Lo, a Beyond The Bump production.
