What is "perfect" anyway? Life is hard enough without the constant strife for a concept that doesn't exist. I wanna talk about the hard, the sad, the messy, the REAL parts of life, that we often feel we have to hide. Let's start celebrating the times we get back up after falling down and trying again. #progressnotperfection

    Episode 39 - Sleepless Nights

    This episode I sat down with my boyfriend, Dan, who has been struggling with insomnia for over ten years. He talks about how isolating it can feel, not only when you're lying awake at night desperately trying to get back to sleep, but when you try to carry on with normal life as if it never happened, or because you feel like no one understands. Talking about our mental health is a really important part of our relationship and always has been. It can be difficult to show your partner the unhealed parts of you, but as long as you communicate openly, the struggle becomes a little bit easier.

    Episode 37 - Timing is Everything

    TW: suicidal thoughts, suicide attempts.  This episode features 24-year-old Arjan Chaggar who I met on Instagram about a year ago. Arj speaks so openly and articulately about the troubles he's faced, but how proud he is to have never given up. He speaks so beautifully about the changes he's made and the help he's accepted to get to the place he is now and the only way is up. He's learnt the value of the company he keeps, the importance of stepping outside his comfort zone and wants to do all he can to help others that are struggling.

    Episode 36 - Board of Directors

    In this episode I got the chance to sit down with the incredible, Antonio Ferreria. Activist, disruptor, consultant and public speaker (whilst also being a student), Antonio takes me through his lived experience with schizophrenia and how telling his story transformed his life. Like a lot us when we first hear the mental health diagnoses we shake our heads and say it must be a mistake, we're not like other people who actually have a mental illness. Of course when we begin to realise that we are actually in need of help and start accepting it and owning it, we see the change in our progress and recovery; but Antonio also appreciates these phases as part of that journey and understands they made him the person who he is today.

    Episode 35 - Milestones I Never Thought I'd Reach

    Hello everyone and welcome back to the Practice Makes Progress podcast! Since it's been a little while, I thought I would use this episode to give a mental health update from myself, the progress I've made and milestones I never thought I'd reach. Thank you all for your continued support and I can't wait for stories we've yet to tell.
