Managing your mental health and supporting people with disabilities, with Lauren McDonough

* TRIGGER WARNING – This episode discusses suicide. If this is triggering for you, we advise perhaps skipping today’s episode. For support, call LifeLine on 13 11 14 or visit beyondblue.org.au *

July is Disability Pride Month, and Kic community member Lauren McDonough does an outstanding job of not only raising awareness around disability, but mental health as well.

Lauren lost the lower half of both of her legs in a tragic incident in 2017 where she attempted to take her own life. Since then, Lauren has not only turned her life around in being a mental health advocate and ambassador for Beyond Blue and Liptember, but she has also been able to embrace her disability and spread the very important message that we can all make small changes to help support those with disabilities and make the world a more inclusive and accessible place.

Finding Confidence in Yourself

Finding Confidence in Yourself

Laura and Steph have both struggled with self-assurance over the years but have learnt to apply a range of techniques which help drive self-belief and confidence. Today’s episode touches on imposter syndrome, how gender stereotypes affect our confidence and how we can combat this, why our bodies are not the solution and how to push yourself out of your comfort zone. We hope this episode helps those in need to find their inner self-confidence.    KIC SPEACIAL SHARES: Laura: Reminder to get your skin checked! Steph: MiGoals Progress JournalSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dena Amy - An Open Discussion on Mental Health

Dena Amy - An Open Discussion on Mental Health

Today we are joined by singer, dancer, actor, producer and DJ extraordinaire Dena Amy. Dena has been through some of her lowest moments this year, she was diagnosed with PMDD (Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder) and has spent a lot of her time in hospital and recovering. In this conversation, Dena spoke so openly about her struggles with anxiety and depression and we were so grateful that she was willing to be so vulnerable with us in sharing her story. With such a big profile and incredible career to date, we are in awe of Dena’s willingness to showcase more than the highlight reel we often see with those who have had such success. This episode does have reference to suicide and depression and it may be triggering for some.
