It's our final episode of BRB Dating Myself! For today's show, we each prepared 5 soundbites extrapolated from previous episodes and reflected on how things have progressed, regressed, and simply just changed.The themes that emerged were compassion and community - (funny that) - meaning what I'd love to recommend to you this week, is to make an effort to show yourself more compassion and make an effort to seek out community. These simple concepts, often overlooked can have a dramatic effect on our wellbeing.You’re joined on every episode by cross-continental duo Milly (@millyrosebannister), Founder of GRLKND (@wearegrlknd) and Manali (@manalidatar__), Performer & Activist for this 12-part crash course on what exactly it means (and why it’s important) to date yourself...Anti-Racist Leadership Resource: www.grlknd.org/blacklivesmatter(USA) Text HELLO to Crisis Text Line: 741 741(Australian) Helplines: https://bit.ly/3ekaW6OFree GRLKND App: https://apps.apple.com/au/app/grlknd/id1504832528GRLKND is a non-profit organisation connecting female-identifying youth to mental health resources.
