About podcast: Mental health is often stigmatised which makes talking about it difficult. We fear being judged or treated differently. This is a space to share the mental health journeys of the host and her friends (real and virtual), interspersed with professional perspectives in the hope of normalising this part of our wellbeing; remembering that we are always perfectly ourselves.
