You guys!! I am so sorry but I don't have a proper episode for you today, instead I have a little tale of how I had a bit of a break down and left Melbourne two days early.
I talk about how the full cycle of being insecure and triggered with friendship stuff and how it all worked out. I think it's interesting and VERY on theme but also, so funny I say it'll just take a sec at the start... 20 mins later, you're all caught up.
Thanks...
