    Social Media and Self Image (Special Guest: Lucy Taylor)

    Now more than ever people are becoming aware of the damage social media can cause to self image and overall mental health. In this episode we explore who has the most responsibility in this situation, and realised it is natural to want to put the blame on someone. However, are influencers also victims in this? How can we all work together to become comfortable enough to be honest with each other?

    The Highs and Lows of Therapy

    TRIGGER WARNING// The topic of suicide is spoken about in this podcast.  There is a lot of misconception about the way therapy works especially in the UK. Whilst it's great to have access to free healthcare, it is important for people to understand that 'reaching out', like we are encouraged to do all over social media, often isn't as simple as it seems. In this episode both Meron and I speak about the struggles we've had accessing free healthcare, and most importantly the things you can do and think to get you through difficult waiting periods and other problems that arise during therapy. We also talk about the wide range of different experiences people can have, depending on factors such as background, religion and more.

    Approaching Existential Angst with Empathy: Surviving Brain vs Thriving Brain

    A lot of the time, especially at the moment, there is a great need to have a firm grip and sense of control over uncertain situations. During the pandemic, uncertainty is everywhere! A lot of us are responding to this by giving ourselves an unrealistic, great big things we must control, to give ourselves the illusion of everything running smoothly and the comfort of predictability. Something that we’ve realised lately, however, is that we are actually allowed to ask ourselves, what would happen if I surrendered the urge to control what’s happening right now? Would I die? Would I be eaten alive by a bear? Possibly. But I also might not...AND it’s okay to not know! Not only does it lift a huge weight off our shoulders, but it also reminds us that life isn’t meant to be controlled. There is a certain beautify in just letting things unfold sometimes.
