Strangers

From Green Barge Audio, this is Facing the Fear I’m Tasha, 20 something, plus-sized, and with voice of a podcasting angel. I’ve appeared on nothing™, the 7:50 am train to Walsall and regularly feature in the morrisons’ hot deli counter. I also guest contribute to ASOS via buying clothes in the sales and forgetting to do my returns. I’m here after a year long stint in therapy, in which I navigated the confusing and alienating world of graduate life. My breakthrough? I was held back from crippling anxiety to do anything that slightly pushed me outside my comfort zone- life can be pretty scary, right? Post therapy, I’m charting a journey of facing my fears and following my dreams.   For Blogs, pictures and more silliness go to facingthefear.co.uk   All production is done by Green Barge Audio and all music is composed by Nic Sims Find out more at GreenBargeAudio.co.uk
