    Damien Leith

    From the Archives:
    Damien Leith, the Irish sweetheart of Australian Idol back in 2006. He's still living in Australia, and has just moved down to the Gong to work as a radio announcer - he's certainly got the voice for it.
    When we asked Damien about his mental health journey, he didn't hesitate - OCD. His struggles with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder extend back to his childhood, where he developed what he describes as "proper OCD."

    In 25 short years on the planet, she's already achieved about 3 lives worth of things. Of course, she's a thoughtful singer-songwriter right now, but she's also played college basketball in the US and worked as a producer for Sky News. How's that for variety?!
    With all these experiences under her belt, it's clear Liyah has a good head on her shoulders.

    Virginia Gay (She's back!)

    Virginia Gay (She's back!)

    The wonderful Virginia Gay is back with us once more.
    Not only is she returning to the podcast, but she's also returned to Australia after a stint in the US.
    It was a big trip for her in more ways than one.
    Not only did she have to battle through COVID (quite literally, she actually got it), but her time in the states was the first time Virginia had been truly cut off from all the support systems she'd built up down under.
    Suffice to say, adjusting to that reality wasn't easy. In fact, Virginia will be the first to admit that her adjustment period led to her engaging in the art of “floor sobbing” more than once.
    But through the trials and tribulations of living alone in America, Virginia's learnt a lot about recognizing her own strengths and the power of being truly vulnerable..
