Hey friends and welcome to episode #38. In this weeks episode I chat with the wonderful Mark Koen. Mark is a youth worker and a member of a school wellbeing team and also runs 'Restored Connection' which supports families to stay connected through that teenage journey. Whilst we do discuss Marks own mental health journey our conversation is mostly centred around the importance connection. We discuss purpose and how we can all wear many hats and he has some great suggestions on where and how to find a community no matter where you live. This conversation was absolutely cup filling! Another great example of a guest arriving as a stranger and leaving as a guest. I am truly blessed to be producing this podcast and I know you will enjoy it as much as I did.

Hey friends and welcome to episode #37. In this weeks episode I chat with fellow podcast producer of the 'Could it Bii' Podcast, HR data specialist, dog mum and backup singer Bianca. We talk through Bianca's decision to get breast implants initially after coming into her teenage years and not developing the way she had assumed she would. She then went on to develop a host of different, somewhat specific but not always connected symptoms which prompted her to do some digging. We talk through her journey to explant and how she is doing now. Although BII is not a recognised diagnosable condition there is plenty of information available online and support groups to connect in on. You can find Bianca on Instagram at @coulditbiipodcast or email coulditbiipodcast@gmail.com Some useful links from this episode: https://saferbreastimplants.org/breast-implant-removal/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRGyQcq5e0LglTVgbaUaE-Q https://linktr.ee/coulditbii?fbclid=PAAaZoJ_AaqfeA3VveSRKn1XXAd_Fod4RgeuraGiQ2ROXzxSkcjwErDA9oHLo Thank you for taking the time to listen, I am SO glad that you are here with me today!

Hey friends and welcome to episode #34. In this weeks episode you will meet the wonderful Bel Ryan. Bel is an art therapist, sees people 1 on 1, runs well-being workshops and is a guest speaker. I was lucky enough to meet Bel last year when working together on the Womens Wisdom and Well-being program we took out to regional towns in South Australia.In her episode Bel talks through her childhood and what it was like dealing with her dads cancer diagnosis in a small, rural town to how she was treated and subsequently felt different at boarding school. Very interesting to hear her reflections on seeing her first psychologist and the many different modalities she has used and still uses now to help manage her mental health.Please note we discuss a critical incident in her workplace in this episode so an extra trigger warning in here for those who need it.There is so, so much to take out of this discussion.
