An interview with Anneka Rice on my mental health journey

I wanted to start the podcast with a very special episode and an incredibly special person who has known me for many years. Anneka Rice is a TV presenter, radio host, author and artist who has known me since I was a little girl. She's witnessed a lot of my journey, and I thought there was no better way to begin the podcast than to have her to ask me a few questions so that you can all get to know me a little better and understand why I'm really doing this podcast. Anneka has witnessed my ongoing struggle with OCD and an eating disorder. In this interview she asks me about my early childhood and the impact that it might have had on my mental health, my school life and the early manifestations of the OCD and anorexia. We also discuss what help I have received over the years and how I struggled during my 20s and battled my illnesses alongside being a lawyer. This conversation will hopefully give you a bit of an insight into my journey and as the series continues you will get to know me more!Follow Hurt to Healing on Instagram:@hurttohealingpod--A big thank you our wonderful charity partner Shout.
