I Didn’t Want to Be Here Anymore: Rock Bottom at 30
It’s true, I never saw myself living this long. I couldn’t see the light at the end of the tunnel. And if you’ve ever hit rock bottom, or feel like you’re there now, believe me I know that feeling deeply.Today’s episode is a heavy one. I’m taking you behind the scenes of what was really going on in my life before turning 30: why I hit rock bottom, my darkest thoughts, the fear of ageing, my mum's accident, substance abuse and how I rebuilt myself back together… slowly, brick by brick.This episode wasn’t easy to record. It’s raw. It’s brutally honest. But I’m hoping that by putting it out there, it helps someone who needs it.You might need some tissues for this one. I know I did. <3Listen to My US Visa Horror Story on Apple or Spotify & The Breakup I never addressed on Apple or SpotifyPlease know that you're not alone and help is always available, for immediate support call life line on 13 11 14, additional resources are available on our website at www.emotionalcontent.com.auReport online abuse to the eSafety commissioner Australia: https://www.esafety.gov.au/reportIf you love Emotional Content and want to see more behind the scenes or connect head over to @_emotionalcontent or @amyjanebrand Hosted on Acast.

Airing My Dirty Laundry: All the Toxic Sh*t I’ve Done
Not a title I ever thought I’d be using on the pod… but here we are.Look, I get it we all love to tell stories about how we’ve been wronged. But have you ever noticed how influencers only seem to take accountability when they’re being cancelled?Well, I’m not under threat of cancellation (for now lol), so I figured… why not? Let’s get brutally honest about my own bad behaviour.In this episode, I open up about how I’ve shown up badly in past relationships, friendships, and even my career. I’m also sharing what I should’ve done differently in one of my more public friendships, the time I blamed literally everyone when I lost my vape, and some of the shady things influencers do that you may or may not have picked up on.Here’s to messy growth! Please don’t judge me after this one 😂 ILY xxIf you love Emotional Content and want to see more behind the scenes or connect head over to @_emotionalcontent or @amyjanebrand Hosted on Acast.
