This episode introduces super mum, Ros (@rozbosdorf), who takes us on her journey of self-advocacy and advocacy for her two neurodivergent children as they navigate the ups and downs of the Early Childhood Early Intervention system through the NDIS.

Ros speaks about some of her sacrifices and how ultimately her advocacy supports her children to be able to have the best chances to get adequate support workers and assistive technology.

Ros acknowledges that at times this journey can feel isolating but stresses the importance of creating meaningful and supportive connections to help you through.

I am in constant awe of and inspired by mum's like Ros, find out why by listening today.

Let's discuss SELF CARE & ROLE MODELLING in our super candid and UNPLUGGED episode this week with host, Bree Tiana, as she takes us through her favourite self-love, self-care and self-compassion moments to prepare you for those times when you might really need a little more self-care than usual.

Our second podcast guest, Ariana (@arikookie), takes us on a journey through her formative years experiencing bullying and supporting friends with their mental health.

She speaks about how her experiences reflecting on each of these themes lead her to pursue her studies in Psychology and Criminology and how her time spent pursuing her dreams of modelling has urged her to want to show up to represent girls just like her.

Ariana teaches us the importance of support and balance as she speaks about negotiating her passions in this episode.

What has grief been like for you? How would you describe it? How do you experience it and how would you discuss it in a room full of strangers?

Well, our UNPLUGGED episodes are about getting raw and real about our stories of lived experience; the good, the bad and the posted late because your girl ain't so good at this.

I don't believe grief is linear, nor do I think that it looks the same way twice. Tune into this episode to hear more about grief UNPLUGGED and journey with me whilst we discuss some different ways I, Bree Tiana, have been affected by grief throughout my life.

Cris is an incredible young woman who joins us to discuss her early life experiences being a young carer and planning the biggest move of her life, to AMERICA, and then not.

Cris discusses her experiences of grieving parts of herself she longed for at a young age and takes us on a journey finding out more about who she is and what she is made of.

This episode is Part 1 of an in-depth look at who Cris is and we can't wait to show you more.

Come along on a journey with us as we get to know more about our special guest and what she can teach us about grief, losing and finding oneself.
