For Day 2 of the countdown, I asked my fellow pageant sisters how they felt about talking about their mental health. For some they were happy to let people know how they are feeling, to open up and share the real side of their feelings whereas some were still uncomfortable sharing that side to others. Remember your mental health journey is up to you, you can chose to share with others or just to your therapist, or maybe use a helpline to talk to a stranger or join an online support group. No matter what you chose, as long as you are coping well, but remember also there are people who would love to help and share these thoughts with you, to face your demons head on together <3 

With 5 days until World Mental Health Day, I asked my fellow pageant sisters what mental health meant to them. Mental health can mean a number of different things, for some it's something they can't control, something that affect's their everyday life, something they live with and help others. Take an insight into the pageant world of mental health, where after world mental health day, we will be interviewing different queens about their views 

Just a test to see how this podcast works! Hi my name is Hannah Golding, I do pageants but I also suffer with depression and anxiety! I've done a brief intro into my mental health journey and I am super excited to bring my video interviews over to podcast form so you can listen to some amazing, inspirational women who share their mental health journey! I hope you enjoy Queen Chat, even if it helps just one person, we have achieved our goal <3
