A loss or change of identity can happen for many reasons, and at any point in our lives. It may be planned, unplanned, sudden or gradual. In this episode we look at why an identity crisis can occur, how this can impact our mental health and self belief, and how we can reignite our 'sense of self'. We consider all the deep and meaningful questions of life and identity including purpose, belonging, happiness, and morals, and discuss some of the really practical things we can do to find our new identity.......perhaps most importantly belting out that infamous song from The Greatest Showman!

Thanks for listening to this long-awaited episode! This topic was really important to us, so we hope you find it useful. We chat all about how to manage and navigate difficult emotions - identifying early warning signs, how societal pressures influence our feelings and responses, and finding healthy coping strategies. We also look at the art of identifying specific emotions in order to deal with them whilst feeling safe and in control, especially during these difficult times.

This will be our last episode in the first series, as we're taking a little break until the Autumn while one of our hosts Helen has some time off to have a baby.
And on that note, this episode covers the topic of being pregnant during the pandemic. We chat about how the pandemic has added an extra layer of anxiety at an already stressful time, and how it has impacted the pregnancy journey, from work challenges to attending appointments alone. But we also think about some of the more positive circumstances, including reduced social pressure, and saving £££'s on maternity clothes! Our top tips this week cover advice such as trusting your instincts, the things you can and can't control, and the importance of still seeking medical help, support and advice. We hope this is helpful to those in similar circumstances.
Enjoy and we'll see you all again soon! Thank you all for your continued support with our Podcast.

Jam-packed with tips, advice and coping strategies to help you identify and manage your stress levels, and look after your own personal stress bucket!

In this episode we tackle another subject that sometimes feels a bit taboo - friendships in adulthood. We talk navigating changing friendships, the challenges of making new friends and why we need more in common at a certain age than just having the same pencil case! We also chat about some of the issues we might experience when re-emerging socially from lockdown and the need for compassion, understanding, and boundaries.
