Let's Talk About... Self-Harm (Episode 167)

One of the toughest conversations about mental health involves the ways in which our self harming behaviour can have an enormous negative impact on our state of mind. Self harm isn’t just limited to physical forms; it’s anything you do to yourself to either intentionally harm yourself or which you know is harmful but you do it anyway (such as when your anxiety coping skills are actually unhealthy and end up harming your wellbeing; for example: excessive drinking, risk-taking, or substance abuse)...

But the relationship between mental health and money is much deeper than simply how much you have in the bank; it’s the way we approach money and your mindset about money that determines how money affects us. A big part of that involves considering the age-old question of whether or not more money equals more happiness (spoiler alert: it doesn’t!...
