Despite improved awareness of mental health, our society is still uncomfortable talking about severe, long term or complex mental health conditions. In a country where 1 in 5 people are living with a mental health condition, the need for open, honest conversations has never been more critical.
Hosted by SANE Ambassador Cam Solnordal, "People Like You" (a collaboration between SANE StigmaWatch and Mindframe, an Everymind Program) delves into the real-life experiences of everyday people navigating mental health challenges.
Premiering April 10, 2024, "People Like You" invites listeners on a journey of empathy, understanding, and empowerment. Each episode features candid conversations with individuals, their families, and carers, exploring a wide range of mental health experiences.
Whether you're directly affected, supporting a loved one, or simply curious, this series offers unfiltered insights. Through intimate interviews, you'll hear stories of resilience, coping mechanisms, and journeys towards recovery. Most importantly, "People Like You" dismantles stereotypes by showing the shared humanity of those impacted. This is a call to action, encouraging us all to build a society with greater understanding and acceptance, because, at the end of the day, we’re people, like you!
This podcast was recorded on the unceded lands of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people of the Kulin nation, and we wish to pay respects to elders past and present and extend our respects to any Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander listeners.
