In this week's episode I share a little about my mental health story, some Australian statistics, and how reading a Graphic Novel helped me to understand my mental health so much more.

In this week's episode, as a special 30th birthday treat to myself, I talk about my love for Harry Potter. I cover why I love it so much and what it means to me, ownership of the universe, my role models from the books, and what I'm going to cover next week. Enjoy!
