Learnt My Lesson

In this episode I discuss a few things about medications for mental health that I have come across recently. Are they being overprescribed? Many people believe they are. I talk about the risks and the importance of informed consent for patients considering starting on any medication.

The things I talk are based around my opinion and view on mental health medications. Please seek advise from professionals when considering any medications.

This episode covers raising your kids in a society with such a terrible diet culture, things you may not even know that are a result of diet culture & poses the question 'why do people think it is okay to comment on someone else's body??'.

We are very excited for you guys to hear this episode where we talk about an incredible project put together by some New Zealand rangatahi 'The Card Game', which is a game designed to normalise conversations about mental health.

In this episode we explain what exactly the card game is, how it works and we use a couple of the cards and questions to spark up a discussion. We were planning on answering 6 or so cards, but the questions were so great that we talked about each one for so long and only got through 3!

Hope you guys enjoy the episode, please check out The Card Game Instagram and support the incredible mahi these young girls are doing!

This episode was supposed to be us going through the advice you guys sent in about cheating and how to move on and heal from it, but once we got talking we went on a few different tangents, getting into some very in depth discussions on things like, would we personally ever give someone who cheated a second chance.

We still cover the how to heal stuff too, but there’s definitely a lot more to this episode than just that. Hope you all enjoy!! ❤️

Advocating for more discussion about mental health is what we're passionate about BUT sometimes we just want to sit back with a coffee and reminisce on travel times and days in the sun. So that's exactly what we did for this episode. 

A chat about nights out, beautiful beaches and some of our favourite memories from our time in Ios. This episode was so much fun to record and we hope you find it entertaining. If you love it, let us know and we'll do a few more episodes like this going forward.

It's been a while since we've discussed anything to do with relationships so we though we'd dive into an episode on the topic of anxiety when it comes to dating.

The age old question 'What am I doing with my life?' is a difficult one, and it is one that we both are still asking ourselves.

Tune in to hear our thoughts on this dilemma, we discuss the life stages and how comparing your life with anyone else's is a sure way to feel like you are behind in life.

Medication for mental health is a great tool we have available to help people that are struggling, but are they over prescribed in NZ? Tune in to hear our thoughts on anti-anxiety medication, antidepressants & our mental health system in Aotearoa.

Both Sav and Jess have been on medications for their mental health, and in this episode we detail each of our experiences with them, one being a very positive experience & the other being quite the opposite.

New Zealand Herald journalist, Katie Harris has been a name to watch in the field of journalism, she has been producing some incredibly hard hitting pieces on topics around sexual violence and sexual harassment. In this episode we discuss with Katie the lack of education that we have around consent, and the behaviours present in our society that propagate the rape culture we have in New Zealand. 

Although we have a long way to go, Katie also discusses some of the positive things that are happening around this topic such as what is believed to be the first sexual assault conviction in New Zealand for 'stealthing'.

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month and we have a lot planned to raise awareness for this incredibly important topic. Tune in to this episode to hear a bit of a life update and to hear details about what is coming up this month.

After a weeks break from releasing, we hope you are ready for another solo ep with Jess & Sav! This episode is all about the way anxiety can cause people to give up, sometimes before they have even started on a project or an idea. It can be so difficult to differentiate between when you're making a logical decision for yourself, and when you're quitting because your anxiety has convinced you things won't work out. Hope you all enjoy this episode, if you have any feedback please message us on instagram @learntmylesson_ 

It has been a while since it has just been us behind the mics so we thought we would finally get around to recording a highly anticipated episode, all about Sav's fear of boys! (Well fear of intimacy but fear of boys sounds funnier).  In this episode Jess shares about this new thing she is trying called casually dating and how that is going for her so far, and Sav gets vulnerable as she shares her history with relationships and how that lead to her developing a some not-so-pleasant thought and feelings around relationships.

If you have any feedback or questions, message us on Instagram @learntmylesson_

*TRIGGER WARNING* We discuss the topic of eating disorders and anxiety in this episode so please don’t listen if that will be distressing to you ❤️ We had the privilege of being joined by Bianca van Dyk for this episode to discuss her journey with her mental health. Being the daughter of a well-known New Zealand netball player, Bianca has had to face a huge amount of pressure to fill her mum’s shoes, which led to some pretty intense anxiety as well as a period where she suffered from an eating disorder. Bianca has the most incredible outlook on life and was a pleasure to chat to, tune in to hear about her experiences and what they taught her!

We are all guilty of sabotaging our lives in one way or another, what if we told you there’s a way to figure out the ways you sabotage yourself the most? Not sponsored, just something we found and want to share with you all, take the saboteurs assessment (it take less than 5 minutes) at https://www.positiveintelligence.com/assessments/ and then listen in as we talk through Jess’s results and blind react to Sav’s.

Ours were both scarily accurate and, honestly, quite confronting, but we’re here for anything that helps with that personal growth. The controller vs. the avoider, childhood events that shaped our personalities, and even a few years, we get into it all.

We sat down with the wonderful Aacacia to talk about her journey with music, her journey with her mental health, and how they are intertwined. We discussed her latest music, where it all started, and the fact that if she hadn’t given music another chance after being bullied out of it in school, she wouldn’t be where she is today. Aacacia is such an incredible person to be around and we loved having her in the studio. She had so many valuable insights on the ups and downs of her mental health and how she’s reached a place where she is absolutely killing it.

2020 has been a wild ride for everyone but imagine having your hopes to be at the 2020 Olympics turned upside down, well that was the reality for Liam Stone, Team New Zealand diver. Although, after a year of injuries and life changes, a 2021 Olympics could work out better anyway. Liam has such a positive outlook on everything this year has thrown at him and opens up to us about his mental health. We also talk about the disordered eating and pressure that exists within the diving community, a community usually wearing only their togs, and his own personal experiences with this.

*Trigger Warning* In this episode we discuss topics such as consent, sexual assault, rape and violence.

We recorded this week’s episode last Monday so we want to acknowledge that we don’t talk about the specific current events that have unfolded in Wellington, the timing is a sad coincidence as opposed to us recording it in response to these events. Our hearts are breaking for all the victims who have come forward and for any victims of sexual harassment, assault or rape. We would also like to acknowledge that in this episode we often generalise around the gender identities ‘woman’ and ‘man’. We are very aware that sexual assault impacts people of EVERY gender and addressing this properly is something we know we need to work on.

To kick off Mental Health Awareness Week we are excited to bring you the first of two episodes with New Zealand Red Cross. Understanding and managing your own mental health is something that isn’t discussed enough, so we sat down with Cate Keville of New Zealand Red Cross to talk about what anxiety and depression could look like and talked through some ways to manage them. In the second episode that will be released later this week we’ll discuss supporting someone you care about who’s struggling with their mental health. Don’t forget to check in on those around you and ask them ‘how are you really’, you never know how much of an impact it could have.
