In this episode, Dave sits down with Dr. Stephen Beaumont to explore the concept of the midlife crisis. Dr. Beaumont, an expert in counselling and pastoral supervision, sheds light on whether the midlife crisis is a legitimate psychological phenomenon or more of a cultural myth. He explains that while people in their 40s to 60s often face significant life transitions and moments of self-reflection, there are ways to implement healthy practices that will help people navigate this season well.

In this episode we dive deep into Sharayah’s powerful testimony of overcoming anxiety and depression through the transformative friendship of Jesus. Sharayah candidly shares her journey, from the weight of mental illness that once left her feeling isolated and lonely to discovering a life-changing relationship with Christ. 

Sunburnt souls. You guys are blessed because I have got Tom Boyd with me today. Now, I don't usually name an episode before we do the episode. I normally name it after when I upload it, but I am going to call this the Enigma that is Tom Boyd because you, my friend, are a riddle.

In this inaugural episode, we turn the tables and interview Dave Quak, the founder of Sunburnt Souls; a podcast dedicated to the intersection between faith and mental health.

For over two decades, Dave has served as a pastor on the Gold Coast.  While running youth ministries and planting a church, he was able to push through the early days of mental ill-health without really understanding the magnitude of his conditions.
