Mark from IronZu -- An absolute legend if you ask us. It's hard to sum up this conversation with just a couple of sentences as Mark delved into a whole range of areas where he and people around him has faced dark times but what really stood out to us in this chat was his approach. He talks about the importance of finding light everyday, even when you have to light the candle yourself. His positivity will lift your energy and his story will likely inspire you to be best version of yourself.

Welcome to the Stillness podcast brought to you by The Pottery Studio. Our philosophy is to find stillness in the pottery process. We believe the mindful aspect of working with clay has a positive impact on one's mental health which is why we wanted to release this mini series in collaboration with our Movember campaign. 

This is a collection of real and relatable conversations with men about their mental health. We talk to retired athletes, travellers, tradies, business owners and other professionals about how they have navigated their way through everything from drug dependencies to becoming fathers and other general life issues.  

We are donating all proceeds from sessions attended by men in the Studio throughout November, to the Movember Foundation and the Grab Life By The Ball Charity. Find out more on our Instagram @thepotterystudio.
