The Student Sessions

Today Tonia is talking to the inspirational Nia Modley.

Nia is a final year psychology undergraduate student with a passion and enthusiasm for destigmatizing mental health illnesses, and encouraging a conversation that we all too often silence. Having been in recovery for 5 years from Anorexia and Bulimia, she is determined to use her pain and learnings to help make something good out of an incredibly dark time. She offers insight and wisdom through spoken word poetry that she shares online and hopes to one day to train as a Clinical Psychologist. 

In this episode Tonia Galati is chatting with the inspirational Lauren Dennis.

Lauren is from Sheffield and is a data analyst apprentice.  She describes herself as ambitious, resilient, and passionate.  She uses her voice to help raise awareness of sickle cell disease, an illness which affects her daily, but which she hasn’t let hold her back and instead uses her illness as fuel to motivate herself. 

In this first episode of Season 3 Tonia Galati is talking to the inspirational Reggie Nelson.

Reggie is a role model to many and known for securing an internship after door knocking in one of London’s wealthiest areas.  Reggie grew up in East London, and has overcome many challenges and barriers, managing to turn his life around to achieve career and personal success.  Now working in the City of London, Reggie is involved in many initiatives to help create opportunities and inspire the next generation or talent.
