Education and Work
In this episode of the More Than My Past podcast, Julie and Jason explore education and meaningful work opportunities as key factors in the process of transformation. Difficult school years and lack of access to decent job prospects contributed to their struggles, but with the right support, self-belief and determination, our guests were able to turn their lives around. Michael, Liz, Marie-Claire and Raff's stories emphasize the importance of family support, self-development and putting lived experience into practice. In the process, they reinforce our belief that individuals can overcome challenges and realize their full potential with the right opportunities and support.Listen back to our previous episode titled ‘Introduction to Series 2’ for the backstories of the inspiring people you hear from in this one.For more information and to view dozens of inspiring stories, go to www.morethanmypast.org.ukIf you've been affected by anything you've heard in this podcast and want some help, you can speak to Forward's Reach Out online chat service at https://www.forwardtrust.org.uk/find-support/reach-out-online-chat/If you are in a crisis, contact the Samaritans - https://www.samaritans.org/
