One of Sally's key messages is that your mental health - directly impacts your physical health. Sally encourages us all to take small steps each day to maintain our mental health. Sally has since recovered and is now actively helping mum's who are walking her path. Sally volunteers with the cancer support charity Bloomhill, and has began blog writing and offering support and coaching as the Awakened Mumma. People struggling with health or cancer (or a loved one) need to hear this positive, encouraging story.

Alison Russell - Bipolar, BPD and lost her daughter to a violent relationship.

Wed, 08 Sep 2021 20:01:13 GMT

Alison Russell has had more than her fair share of heartache and hardship in her life but she still gets up each day and fights the good fight. I have had the privilege of watching her get her mojo back, so to speak, over the last few years since momentum has been gaining in her daughters case. For those that don’t know, Alisons daughter Kirra, was killed in 2014, at 27yrs old. At the time, Kirra was in a DV relationship with a guy named Paul. Her death was labelled as a suspicious death, but Alison always knew in her gut that someone killed her.

Recently, the state coroner found that the injuries inflicted on Kirra by her partner Paul, was the cause of her death.

Along with this tragedy, Alison suffers from Bipolar and borderline personality disorder and has since her teenage years. Hear how Alison manages this and what treatment works for her.

before. But when she started looking into them, she found that the allegations were much worse than she had

thought, and that they were an open secret in the music industry. Everybody Knows is a new five-part podcast

series from the makers of Australia's number one daily news podcast, 7am. Follow Ruby as she investigates

what has held back the MeToo Movement in Australia, and whether this new wave of women speaking out could
