The podcast where we discuss the strange tangled mess that's in our minds. Hosted by Izzy and Jenny, Untangled is a podcast that attempts to open up the discussion around those everyday struggles we find ourselves facing and by doing so normalise the topic of mental health for our listeners.
In each episode, personal anecdotes are shared to help us untangle a topic of our choosing, bi-weekly challenges are set to help us discover new techniques and coping strategies and on occasion guests are invited to share their personal journeys towards recovery.

'Tis the Season To Be... | Bonus Christmas Episode 2020
'Tis the season to be (feeling however you want to feel) - fala la lala lala la la!
In this special bonus Christmas episode, Izzy and Jenny discuss the pressure to always be 'jolly' at Christmas time and how that's not always possible if you're struggling emotionally or mentally. Alongside sharing their own personal stories of Christmases past, Jenny focuses specifically on the topic of loss in her coping strategies section; the mourning we all feel over a year of missed opportunities as well as over the loved ones we have lost.

Great Expectations | Overachievement & Perfectionist Thinking
This week Izzy and Jenny discuss the impact of those unreachable expectations that we not only put on ourselves but that society implicitly places upon us. They share how they have fought against a tendency to overachieve throughout their life and battled through perfectionist (and often self-critical) thinking if those high standards aren't achieved.

Fighting Fear Head On | "Bursting With Happiness" Interview with Lisa Dimino-White
Izzy and Jenny are joined by a very special guest in this episode of Untangled. Introducing Lisa Dimino-White, an inspirational motivational speaker, blogger and author with lived experience of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD).
Lisa tells us about her mantra to "fear less" rather than become "fearless" and how introducing small bursts of joy into your life can help you to overcome potentially life-limiting and crippling fear.
Lisa's new book 'Bursting with Happiness' is available now on Kindle and in paperback here (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bursting-Happiness-Bursts-Change-Everyone-ebook/dp/B08F6VXCF3/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=bursting+with+happiness&qid=1598527119&sr=8-1) Visit her website to read her infectiously optimistic blog and for more information on her story: thejoyseeker.com (https://thejoyseeker.com)

The Pursuit of Vitality | Striving for a Life Without Depression
This week's title is inspired by Andrew Solomon's Ted Talk on 'Depression, the Secret We Share (https://www.ted.com/talks/andrew_solomon_depression_the_secret_we_share?language=en)' ("The opposite of depression is not happiness, but vitality, and it was vitality that seemed to seep away from me in that moment.")
Izzy and Jenny focus in this episode on how they've personally been able to overcome depression and regain some of that vitality that was lacking for so long. They reflect on some of the less helpful language that's used around this mental illness, and how we can all be more helpful to loved ones who are suffering.
