Today's anonymous guest has an incredible story filled with tragedy and triumph, we take a detailed look at past relationships which included severe domestic violence as well as mental and emotional trauma, we talk about continuing themes in these relationships as well as the slippery slope into them.

My guest currently works in support at a private school, and talks about how her own experiences both as a mother and human can shape the lives of those around her. We have an open and honest discussion around all the parts of her life and parenting that made her who she is today, including both a diagnosis for her daughter and self for ADHD.. let me preface this with we cover some intense topics. but my guest has a way with words and in such an intelligent way conveys her story with candor.

Dakota is an entrepreneur owning several businesses including a glaziers, a barbershop and the place where we met, a gym, he is involved in local government as a councilor, and with that he is also currently studying his diploma in Local Government, there's also a high possibility that that you may also have found him on TikTok with some of his videos nearing half a million view counts.

We talk about love, loss, mental health, business and how he got to where he is professionally and personally.

This conversation really showed a vulnerable and honest side to Dakota that I hope you find as interesting as I did.

On today's episode I sit down and have a chat with Jasmin Lucas, Jas has studied psychology, has a degree in teaching, runs mentor programs to help people find alternative pathways and ease people into university, she is a mother and a wife, as well as all that she is my longest friend, she has been a part of my story for so long now that everything major I've ever been through or dealt with she has guided me, from simple questions to hard truths.

This episode for me was pure catharsis. We discuss in depth emotions and with utter honesty ask each other questions that give an insight into our lives and our friendship from a completely honest and vulnerable point of view.
