Do you wish you had a Jan? The importance of positivity.

In this episode I talk to Jan Clark. Jan is a mother and Grandmother who was diagnosed with Leukaemia after a trip overseas. Jan's diagnosis and treatment also happened to coincide with the beginning of the Covid 19 pandemic and the birth of her 7th grandchild and if that wasn't complex enough, Jan's age meant that the treatment she needed could be more dangerous that the leukaemia itself. But this is a story of one of the strongest and most amazingly positive people you will ever meet and how that strength, positivity and the support of her family helped her to win the battle over this disease. Not only that but how it has enabled her to support others in her position.

But you don't look like you have a problem.

In this episode we talk to Amy and hear her incredible story of addiction, mental health and recovery.One of the most common things we hear when we have a mental health condition is "But you have everything you could ever want. How do you have a problem?" and this was certainly the case for Amy. We talk about how she went from seemingly having the perfect life with a great job, a great apartment and all the trapping of success, to living with addiction and ultimately her journey to rehab, recovery and redemption.
