287: Corrina Rawlinson on When You Can’t Push Through Anymore and Finding Joy Again

Today's episode is one of the most raw and important conversations I’ve ever shared. Corrina Rawlinson is a rural mum from Esperance, WA — a businesswoman and straight shooter, bravely telling the truth about what motherhood and mental illness can look like behind closed doors. She shares growing up in small rural communities, carrying childhood trauma into adulthood, pushing through while keeping everyone else afloat — until she reached breaking point. Corrina speaks openly about being admitted to a psychiatric hospital and what it took to come back from the darkest place. This is a conversation about survival and hope — proof that healing is possible and life can be rebuilt.Lifeline: https://www.lifeline.org.au/Beyond Blue: https://www.beyondblue.org.au/1800RESPECT: https://1800respect.org.au/PANDA: https://panda.org.auPink Elephants Support Network: https://www.pinkelephants.org.auThe Empowered Motherhood Program is an online pregnancy, birth and postnatal recovery program designed by a women’s health physiotherapist.
