In this episode of Fixings Not Included, the podcast brought to you by fischer fixings UK, we’re tackling an important topic—mental health in the construction industry. Joining us are two incredible guests, Rob Muldoon [ @themyhpodcast ] and Joe Baker [ @ScreedPapi ] who share their personal journeys through the highs and lows of their careers and mental well-being.
Rob, a seasoned construction professional with over 24 years in the trade, opens up about the struggles he faced with mental health and the stigma that still lingers in the industry. His journey from apprentice bricklayer to project manager took a turn when he hit a breaking point, leading him to become a passionate advocate for open conversations around mental well-being, including starting his own podcast “The Mind Your Head podcast”.
Joe’s story is equally inspiring, transitioning from the food industry to construction, he battled addiction and mental health issues before a life-changing moment set him on a new path. Now, he uses his platform to raise awareness and connect with others going through similar struggles.
Together, we dive into the realities of mental health in construction and the importance of resilience, community, and breaking the silence around these critical issues.
This episode is raw, real, and a must-listen for anyone in the trade or beyond. Tune in now and join the conversation.
