Health EN ↓ 19 episodes

This is a podcast discussing mental health and its a subject very important to me as I myself am battling with my own mental health. Let's 'Smash It' when it comes to the stigma about not talking about how we really feel. Each episode a special guest will share their own battle and we can all listen and see if we can learn something from it. Person-al Battles is a podcast about the human spirit and even when its down, broken and looks defeated in battle, it can pick itself back up, keep fighting and keep moving froward. Hosted on Acast.
