Introducing SANE's new Podcast, We're People Like You

We’re People Like You

1 in 5 Australians live with a mental health condition. That’s more than 4 million people. But despite it being one of the most common health issues impacting our community, we still find it difficult to talk about it. I’m one of those 1 in 5 people and I think it’s time we changed society’s perception of mental illness and how we view those who live it.

Because guess what?

We’re people like you.

So what is this podcast all about? And when you’re spoiled for choice, why choose ours?

Whether you are living with a mental health issue, caring for someone, want to learn or simply interested in hearing inspirational stories of hope and recovery - this podcast is for you.

Hello, I’m your host Cam Solnordal and I want to share with you a little more about this podcast series we’re building with SANE Australia.

In a series of one to one interviews I’ll be talking with people who have a range of different experiences and perspectives when it comes to complex mental health. We’ll hear how they navigate life’s ups and downs, living, loving and making the most of the opportunities that come their way - just like all of us do.

I will be bringing you eye opening and sometimes challenging conversations as our guests welcome us into their world. Most importantly, I’ll be asking them what we can all do to shift stigmatising attitudes and unhelpful behaviours so we can get to a place of true acceptance in our society.
