Hello everyone, I hope that you are all ok and enjoying the summer!
So during the lockdown my Mum and Sister started listening to this podcast by Ollie MN and George Ezra called phone a friend, which as the name suggests, they phone each other once a week and chat about pretty much everything. It does focus on Mental health and being able to talk openly about it as George has OCD and Ollie has anxiety.
In each episode of the podcast they have a section where they read out emails from listeners. One day my mum decided that she would send in an email and mention my blog and videos, but she didn’t tell me this as she didn’t expect them to read it. However about a week later she was listening to one of the episodes and towards the end came the email section (by this point she had completely forgotten that she had even sent in an email!) and they started to read out an email from someone called Joanne (which is my mum’s name) and she suddenly realised that they were reading out her email!
Obviously she then came and told me and we listened to it together. They also checked out my blog and some of my videos which is awesome and very exciting!
I do highly recommend checking out the podcast as it is very funny and it is great to hear other people talk about their mental health struggles, as not many people do.
Here are a couple of links to their podcast and if you are interested to see what they said about me and TicTastic then it is in the episode from the 29th of June called “Pillow talk”. It is roughly at 44 minutes through.
