Hey everyone,

This week's challenge is the podcast challenge! Your challenge is to listen to a podcast on something that interests you. There's so many podcasts out there and you can listen to one on just about anything. They are free and you can listen to them on YouTube, Spotify, SoundCloud or if you have an iPhone, there's a podcasts app on your phone. 

Feel free to share any podcasts with everyone below so we can all listen to new podcasts too :) 

Here's a podcast I listened to recently with Bryony Gordon and Scarlett Curtis. I found Scarlett's story really inspiring. She talks about her struggles with PTSD and how she copes day to day with everything - https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-st9pa-9bee0d

I hope you enjoy this weeks challenge :) 

If you're interested in getting involved in some of the fun things we have going on at The Mix such as suggesting a weekly challenge idea, posting up your own weekly challenge, or writing something for the newsletter, let us know over on this form.
Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    Aw just listened to one of hers & really interesting. 


    i listen to a few now but recently ive listened to True Crime Garage - quite disturbing to listen to sometimes. And ive listened to Lee Mack on Absolute. I also used to listen to The Mindfulness Kind - but she kinda spoke too fast for me ah
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley
