    Episode 1. Beth Woolley: My Mental Health Can't Define Me
    Aug 18 2023

    'Overcoming' can be a difficult and daunting task, especially when faced with personal struggles and academic pressures. In our first episode, Beth, who is autistic, anxiety-ridden, and a trauma survivor, recounts her struggles and her life-long journey of self-discovery. Rather than trying to fit into preconceived molds or forcing oneself to conform to certain expectations, Beth encourages everyone to explore your own ways of managing well-being. Your mental health does not define who you are.

    Podcast series created and directed by Takoua Jendoubi (Dr)
