In today's episode, Bonnie shares her challenging and transformational journey of moving to Bali, starting a new job, living for the first time in a foreign country, and committing to a new and serious relationship...all at once. During this time, she struggled with acute anxiety and panic attacks and had to develop tools manage it. These tools, she believe, can help so many others fighting through similar mental health challenges at a time when so much is weighing on our collective psyche. We hope her lessons can help you, too.
A few takeaways you'll get from this episode:
- The "Instagram vs. Reality" of living and working in Bali
- Insights from Bonnie's personal experiences on how to help someone you love who is struggling with anxiety and / or panic attacks
- The importance of acknowledging personal struggles, embracing vulnerability, and showing compassion to ourselves
Our favourite quotes:
- "The vision is that we put down this internal and external policing of who's doing a good enough job and who's not and just open the doors to a welcoming energy." - Madeleine
- “I think that we take on lots of challenges without acknowledging it in regular life even when you're not moving to a new country.” - Bonnie
