MENTAL HEALTH 101: What “well” actually looks like (and how we measure up)

Ever wonder if your brain’s thriving or just surviving? In this episode of LATE BLOOMERS, Rox and Rich dive into Nancy McWilliams’ 10 qualities of mental health and grade their own messy minds. From secure attachment to zest for life, nothing’s off limits as they swap stories of Rox’s chaotic boozy uni days and Rich’s deer-in-headlights youth.


Their scores? A wild mix of wins and “still growing.” Rox finds safety with Rich but still wrestles with self-esteem, while Rich loves their purpose-driven life but questions his grit when things crumble. Along the way they tackle why ADHDers and neurodivergents often feel “less than,” and how therapy, love, and environment can change the soil you’re planted in.


Raw, funny, and painfully relatable, this episode isn’t a perfect checklist—it’s a no-shame checkup. If you’ve ever wondered “Am I actually okay, or just really good at faking it?” this one’s for you.
