Are You Ok?

Season 2, Ep. 8

On this week’s episode we are talking about a fantastic initiative here in Australia that works to prevent suicide, educate and equip people, and support those in need.


We also take a quick moment to acknowledge that September is PCOS Awareness Month!

International Suicide Crisis Phone Numbers: - (we know that we have said on the podcast that we would put them all in the show notes... then we discovered that there is a limit to how much we can write here! So we are putting the link to where we found them instead) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_suicide_crisis_lines
