Ep. 3 - Mental Health Struggles in Self-Isolation
My friend and videographer, Andy Napleton, opens up about his personal struggles with his mental health in self-isolation. We discuss why being creative at this time is important for us all to process our emotions and feelings and how it can positively impact others as well. We also share how easy it is to hit burnout after periods of intense creativity and Andy shares how (ironically) the fear of burnout pushes him to keep on going. We talk more about anxiety, addictive tendencies, and the importance of structure and routine at this time; we just need to take one day at a time the moment - however alien that may seem for some of us to do!

Ep. 2 - Self-Isolation Insights
In this episode, I'm sharing some of my own recent insights and realisations at the beginning of lockdown and in self-isolation. I touch upon how mentally draining it is to live in two worlds - the online world and the offline world - and how I feel LESS isolated in self-isolation which demonstrates a connection with others only works when you are present in the moment, and intentional with it.

Ep. 1 - Addiction, Anxiety and Body Image
I talk to to Zoe Aston MSc, psychotherapist, and creator of the popular Instagram account @YourMentalHealthWorkout about mental health and the issues we face today with addiction, anxiety, and body image. We discuss body image vs. body reality and the unbalance that can result in body dysmorphia. We also explore a possible link between social media and codependency - with the new label of 'digital disorders' - as well as anxiety, dealing with triggers and ways in which you can reset your body and mind. This episode will raise your self-awareness and help you to understand and navigate yourself better.
