  <p><font size="+1">hi there!</font> <BR> thank you so much for listening to episode 5 of the Ready or Not podcast! thank you so much for listening and we hope you connected to and found kindness in what we had to say. society has come a long way in its knowledge and relationship with one's mental health and mostly it’s for the best. unfortunately though, despite this being the furthest we’ve come in a while, mental health and illness are still very stigmatized and avoided topics. the issue with avoiding it, however, is that it only worsens the problem, and leaves more people ill-equipped to handle the multitude of things that come along with them. Josip joins us as we talk openly about our own mental health journeys and how far we’ve come as well as where we were at the beginning and how we managed to better ourselves with time and compassion. <BR> we speak openly and honestly about the ups and downs of our own mental illnesses, so we would like to preface that the episode does cover some heavy content; please be aware of that going in <BR> as per our usual disclaimer: we are not bashing any specific group of people or opinions, the aim of this podcast is to share new perspectives and ideas and we're just doing that for ours! <BR> please leave us any thoughts or comments on our Instagram (@ReadyorNot_podcast_) - we'd love to hear your point of view! <BR> as mentioned in the episode - below is our resource bank, complete with some cool sources to check out for your own interest. <BR> thank you all for being here and have a lovely day! <3 <BR> noemie and ruthie <333 <BR> <BR> <I>Resource bank <3:</I> <ul> <li><A HREF="https://idontmind.com/journal/8-reasons-you-should-take-an-online-mental-health-screen-today">8 Reasons You Should Take an Online Mental Health Screen Today - IDONTMIND</a> - Information on screening tests and their importance in mental health journeys</li> <li><A HREF="https://screening.mhanational.org/screening-tools/?ref=IDM">MHA Screening tests</a> - different tests and language options</li> <li><A HREF="https://idontmind.com/">IDONTMIND</a> - online platform Ruthie spoke about based on destigmatizing mental health</li> <li> Noemie, Josip, and Ruthie’s Instagram to reach out if you need it <33 <BR> Ruthie: @_cruthie <BR> Noemie: @noemie_l_m <BR> Josip: @josipgoluza </li> </p>

  <p><font size="+1">hi there!</font> <BR> thank you so much for listening to episode 3 of the Ready or Not podcast! Thank you for listening and we hope you found some comfort in our confusing experiences and perspectives on teenage-dom. It's no secret that ages 13-19 are rough - changing bodies, mindsets, expectations, and ideals are something that all teenagers can fall prey to, and that's why we think its especially important to create spaces to openly and safely discuss the full ‘teenage experience’. We talk about how we figured out our own teenage experiences and the other factors of identity that played into that as well as getting real and honest about teenage romance and sex - obviously a big part of the journey. That being said - Ruthie honestly discusses some aspects of her own experience of sexual assault, a difficult topic that we are both proud she could cover. Still, we also understand that this can be triggering for some. This conversation runs from 42:37 to 44:00 with a warning before we begin, so that you can be aware and mindful of that section in order to do what is best for you. <BR> as per our usual disclaimer (and meant more so in this episode): we are not bashing any specific group of people or opinions, the aim of this podcast is to share new perspectives and ideas and we're just doing that for ours! <BR> please leave us any thoughts or comments on our Instagram (@ReadyorNot_podcast_) - we'd love to hear your point of view! <BR> as mentioned in the episode - below is our resource bank, complete with some cool sources to check out for your own interest. <BR> <BR> thank you all for being here and have a lovely day! <3 <BR> noemie and ruthie <333 <BR> <BR> <I>Resource bank <3:</I> <ul> <li><A HREF="https://www.tiktok.com/@brianmichaelhinds.int">brianmichaelhinds (@brianmichaelhinds.int) TikTok</a>- TikTok maria was talking abt, just a good laugh and a show of the force of good that the internet can be</li> <li><A HREF="https://www.netflix.com/title/80117038> Big Mouth on Netflix </a>- good show on what going through puberty is like and presents reality in an abstract, creative and honest way</li> </p>
