Supporting Friends Through the Shit with Mitch Wallis

Darling, Shine!

One of the questions that comes up regularly, in the Darling Shine community, is how to support someone who is moving through the big life stuff. Like when a friend is dealing with the grief of losing a loved one, or they receive a diagnosis that isn't good, or they've just had a miscarriage... how can you be there in a way that is actually helpful for them?

Literally no one better to ask these tough questions, than Mitch Wallis. And this conversation is the perfect blend of helpful, practical advice, mixed with real life experience. Strap yourself in, Darlings. This is a cracker of an ep.

This episode deals with mental health, if you find you need support, we encourage you to seek support.
