EP3 - Grief, Guts, and a Great Sense of Humour: Megan’s Story
Episode 3
mercredi 30 juillet 2025 • Duration 47:49
Trigger Warning: This episode includes open discussions about anxiety, body image, self-harm, and eating disorders. Please take care while listening and skip this episode if these topics may be triggering for you. Support resources are listed in the show notes.
This episode features Megan, a 15-year-old student with wisdom and humour well beyond her years. She shares how she’s processed unimaginable loss - losing both parents and navigating the foster system - while finding strength through comedy, routine, art, and the support of her school’s wellbeing hub.
Megan’s honesty around grief, body image, social media pressure, and mental health is powerful, and her ability to talk about it with such calm and confidence is something else.
We also talk about how deleting Snapchat, cutting her screen time from 14 hours to between 4&6, and embracing expressive writing changed her mindset and helped her manage anxiety.
There’s a lot in here for young people, educators, and genuinely, anyone who’s ever felt overwhelmed by life.
Megan doesn’t just tell her story — she teaches us how to keep going, with humour and heart.
Highlights:
(05:18) Seeing the funny side - is that possible?
(12:17) Finding faith and hope
(13:54) Faith, philosophy and maintaining resilience
(17:24) The stigma of Mental Health, and how to ask for help
