Season 1 Finale; Episode 35

We close the season with a candid look at PTSD, support that actually helps, and the messy balance between ambition, health, and holidays. Music memories, first speaking gigs, and hard-won lessons shape a toolkit for getting through Christmas without losing yourself.

• deciding to pause for the year and return with interviews
• why Desperado still hits and why support matters more than fixing
• sport, injuries, and the Sydney Marathon dilemma
• the first official talk, clinician feedback, and refining the story
• sharing the podcast boldly and a lucky comedy‑night connection
• listener messages that validate lived experience
• how to support with texts, SUDS scale, and small, specific offers
• Christmas reminders: say no, take breaks, celebrate micro‑wins
• goals for more talks and consistent socials next year
