The A Sonic Hug podcast provides a platform for individuals to share raw, unfiltered stories about mental health struggles. Drawing from my own 25-year battle with PTSD, panic disorder, and agoraphobia, my aim is to promote empathy and understanding by presenting real-life accounts without sugar-coating. The podcast's uniqueness lies in its commitment to authentic storytelling, delving into themes like grief and body image. My personal experiences inspire me to break down barriers, create a safe space for sharing, and advocate for accessible mental health support. A Sonic Hug is more than a podcast; it's a community united by shared experiences, promoting compassion and awareness.
