Human Podcast with Jess Mills, is a place to hear extraordinary human stories.
Each week, I am in conversation with a guest to explore how they have been transformed by their lives greatest challenges.
So often, our stories of tragedy and survival are left untold, hidden behind the facade of our ordinary lives: ‘Human’ has been created to make them more seen, more heard and more celebrated, because by doing so, I think we can all feel more connected to our shared humanity.
So if the world is feeling like a dark or difficult place, join us and let your heart be ignited by the fire of the human spirit.
