We're baaaaaack!

So sorry for the unexplained week off last week - we're juggling some serious difficulties with time zones and life getting all crazy!

So this week we have a one-off solo episode with Kat!

As you may have seen on our Instagram account last week, Kat posted a graphic saying 'When does grief become a mental illness?' and low and behold... it resonated with SO many of you!

Unfortunately, grief often comes hand in hand with mental illnesses such as depression and anxiety but the difficulty comes in recognising when you're no longer just grieving but you've actually become mentally unwell.

Kat unpicks the signs she experienced when this happened to her and the steps she's taken since to build a resilience against attacks on her mental wellbeing and to protect her mind and body including becoming more self-aware, treating her body with respect through feeding herself and moving often and tactics she's learnt over the years in order to live with her mental illness.
