The Action Log with Kit Birks

Heads up: This content mentions suicide and mental health. If this feels difficult, please take care of yourself and pause if you need to. If you’re inspired by Kit’s challenge and want to create your own, make sure you do it safely, with support from others, and in a way that respects your own needs and limits.

Welcome to The Action Log, a new audio Q&A featuring the voices and insights of Kit Birks. In honour of Mental Health Awareness Week’s "Take Action" theme, we’ve compiled Kit’s direct answers and personal stories as she walks across Europe for suicide prevention.

This isn't just a conversation; it’s a raw, actionable dispatch from the trail, where Kit explains how she is transforming her own healing into a continental mission. From the grit of the road to her best advice for anyone looking to spark change, listen in as Rory presents Kit’s most powerful reflections on turning experience into impact, one step at a time.

FYI:

Bipolar is a mental health condition that can cause extreme changes in mood, energy, and activity levels, including periods of feeling very high or very low.
Attention Deficit Disorder (ADHD) is a condition that affects someone’s behaviour. For example, they might have trouble concentrating, act impulsively, or seem restless.
