Over Summer we're revisiting some of our 2021 episodes from GET REAL. In this ep we meet @_HeidiEverett. Heidi released a stunning memoir in 2021 called My Friend Fox about her lived experience with the mental health system. buzzsprout.com/922639/9757650…
2021 was another difficult year, but one that interspersed bleak blank numbness with the first few stirrings of hope. Hope for the world, but also hope that my ability to think, write and create may (eventually) return. Here are some of my fave reads and recommendations…
I’ve been nominated for an award with Probono Australia! Please have a gander and see if a vote is worth chucking in for me and Schizy Inc. @ProBonoAust impact25.probonoaustralia.com.au/2022-impact-25…
Thankyou to every one who bought, read and listened to ‘My Friend Fox’ this year. Tigger Spirit looking over me is happy, I can feel. Here’s a pic of me recently at Fox’s ‘End of The Earth’ in the book aka Tigger’s lookout.
Have you ever wanted to help but didn’t know how? @ProBonoNews has launched a podcast, #HowCanIHelpPodcast! We hear from people with #livedexperience of issues like homelessness and domestic violence, about how we can help. Check out the podcast 👇 bit.ly/3BVf3AQ
