The Unjaded Podcast __Unjaded__

After a little break, we’re back bringing you an episode about social anxiety. It can be a difficult thing to live with but with some hard work, we’ve found that we’re in a much better place than we once were.

This week we are talking about body image, learning to accept and embrace yourself. The media can be very damaging to our self-esteem and confidence. We’ve both struggled with body insecurities but ultimately are learning to adore and appreciate our bodies. Loving yourself is challenging, we can be so harsh on ourselves, but keep working towards it and remember to love yourself the way you love others

This week we are coming to you with our experience finding help in school and university. We also talk about just how important it is to have a supportive social network around you, people who you can reach out to in times of need, whoever it be. Surround yourself with loving people who are good for your mental health, and do your best to be that person for your friends and family.
(Disclaimer: We are not attacking any institution, we’re just voicing our frustrations about how we found it difficult to find support through the systems in place)
P.S. we filmed this with Connie's dog in the room so any background noise is due to her dog!!

Following the tragic events surrounding the death of Sarah Everard and so many girls/women, we felt that it was necessary to have this conversation around sexual harassment and assault.
What can we do as a society to make a change?
Call out disrespectful comments against women
Be an active bystander
Set your boundaries
We hope you find this episode insightful and stay safe x

With the rise of racism towards the Asian community, we felt that it was important to have a conversation about the problems we faced whilst growing up. As young people, we feel that it is important to be more open about pointing out and speaking out against offensive comments. It can have a detrimental effect on all of our mental health, especially as we advance into an age where so many cultures affect our everyday lives. Stay safe!

In this episode, we discuss the effects of social media on our lives as young people and how it can influence the standards we hold about society and relationships.
