On the third episode of Student Mental Health podcast, Marlit and Juliana invite group member Myriam and fellow student Dayan to talk about managing overwhelm in school. This episode includes a 5 minute guided breathing exercise, perfect for grounding yourself when in the midst of exam season.

This week on The Student Mental Health Podcast, we host our first guest speaker, Brenda St. George, to help talk about depression in students: signs and symptoms to look out for, how to approach someone with depression, what the impact of it is on one’s health and the main difference between situational and clinical depression. Ms St. George is a social and emotional high school counsellor who has been in this line of work, first as a teacher and then as a counsellor, for over 30 years in different countries around the world. During this episode she helps us give you, our audience, a more profound overview of the topic.

In this episode, Marlit and Juliana will be talking about test anxiety; what it is and tips and tricks to try and combat it. Tune in for a combination of advice, anecdotes and laughter.
