LISTEN NOW: Don't Call It A Breakdown

Julie Goodwin has had an extraordinary ordinary life. And in the last few years, she has had an extraordinary ordinary wrestle with her mental health. While you were buying Julie's cookbooks, watching her two stints on Masterchef and listening to her on the radio, she was taking care of everyone but herself (sound familiar?) and some issues she thought she'd successfully shoved in a low drawer spilled out and began to take over. In this episode of Mid, host Holly Wainwright talks to Julie about the winding road back from a "breakdown" and what happens when you stop doing everything for everyone all at once. This is Mid, Episode 1: Mental Health. If this episode brings up anything for you Lifeline is always there on 13 11 14.  Want to get yourself a copy of Julie's incredible book Your Tim Starts Now?
