Taming the Tiger

Our resident Tiger Tamers, Ross & Ellice, are joined by the brilliant Oly Newton, Founder of Lights on Wellbeing, Director of Run4YourMind and Motivational Speaker.
Here is an introduction to our brilliant guest...
Oly Newton is an international lived experience speaker, facilitator, and Mental Health First Aid England instructor. After suffering for years with severe OCD, anxiety, and depression, Oly turned to running as a coping mechanism in July 2017—a decision that would change his life forever.

Since then, he has founded the Run4YourMind Foundation and Lights On Wellbeing, and he is the co-founder of Talks For Change Co. Oly conducts impactful presentations in both corporate settings and educational institutions. He is on a mission to create conversations that often go unheard and to be the voice he needed when he was younger.
