    No Rule Book To Parenting

    No Rule Book To Parenting

    There is no rule book to parenting and this episode clearly voices that message over and over again. We didn’t want to solely focus on post natal depression but to hear of the challenges in motherhood from first hand experiences, from two contrasting stories from two young mothers from our own community.

    Mental Health is challenging not for just those who are experiencing it but also those who are there to help and aid you through your time of desperate need and attention.

    Dionne the guest of our show was recently involved in all of the above emotions as her boyfriend Chalmers seeked help for endless and ongoing depression that he was trying to battle on his own. Dionne shares her incredible experience with Allen and the Healthy Distraction Podcast to inspire other partners , family members and friends of what to do when a loved one is in dire need of help.

    Just One More Spin ( Gambling Addiction)

    Just One More Spin ( Gambling Addiction)

    In the UK its estimated that over 430,000 people are suffering from compulsive gambling addictions.

    Picking up your phone or tablet is easier than a walk to the bookies. As much as it can be applauded that gambling shops are working hard to reduce statistics of their industry ruining people’s lives, its also acknowledged in this episode more can be done.

    Darren was very brave to accept my invitation to come on the Healthy Distraction podcast and discuss what used to be his habits but also sharing his coping mechanisms and how he escaped such a bad addiction.

    It’s a very secretive addiction and I hope all that listen to the episode understand this.

    Healthy Distraction ❤️
