Beware the Thought-Stopping Cliches that End Discussion – Tinycast #21

"It is what it is", "You can't win 'em all"... When a challenge stumps us, or we find ourselves with a dilemma for which we have no immediate explanation or answer, we tend to resort to platitudes that allow us to set the problem aside. Handy though this is, there is a more sinister side-effect of these 'though-stopping clichés'.

Don’t feel qualified? Take action anyway and be a part of positive change – Tinycast #15

When it comes to helping someone in crisis, I often hear people saying something which includes the phrase “… but I’m not qualified.”

Overcoming Anorexia – How one woman recovered from the illness

What if you looked in the mirror and saw a skeletal version of yourself staring back at you? Would you be proud of your emaciated figure, or would you break down in tears? For Michele Mason, this haunting question became a daily reality when Anorexia Nervosa stripped her 5'11" frame down to a mere 96 pounds.
Decades later, Michele realised the immense importance of sharing her story rather than burying it deep within herself. In a candid and courageous memoir, Michele dives into the harrowing depths of her Anorexia hell, recounting her journey from before the deadly illness took hold, through the long, grueling days of her ordeal, and finally to the triumphant moment when she emerged victorious as a healthy, happy survivor.
Her book, Annihilating Anorexia is a testimony to the strength and resilience of the human spirit in the face of overwhelming adversity. Michele's story serves as a beacon of hope to those struggling with Anorexia, offering guidance, support, and a glimpse into the light at the end of the tunnel.
