I can’t tell you imposter syndrome I’ve had up until watching this episode about my dyslexia being accepted as neurodivergent. Being dyslexic has felt like a ‘silly’ thing to speak about. But Georgia has just vocalised the struggles that dyslexia brings, so for that I thank you. I feel very much seen 🙏🏼🌈
I felt the same about Lockdown , it actually made me realise that I was very different from others , I’m now waiting on a psychiatrist adhd assessment with psychiatry uk after being referred by my GP on the Right to choose path , I’m 58
I loved this! Please would you do us a favour and have more previous love island contestants on your podcast 🙌. The contestants were adored all around the country, and we would love to hear their stories ❤️
Oof. I'm always so prone to thinking I'm open-minded because I'm mostly feeling different and therefore it's natural to me to consider that obviously people DON'T all function the same way, but... you had me on (paraphrasing) "I always assume people won't screw others over because why would they". I've learned my fair share on that end and am certainly treading more carefully than I was when I was younger, but yes, I too assume the best of people before they prove me otherwise - and I still fall a bit into that trap of thinking "I'm this way, so everyone else obviously is this way, too". Didn't expect this insight. This was one more beautiful conversation, by the way, and she proved she by far doesn't deserve the shame that was put on her.
I would love to hear an interview on this topic from someone more experienced and mature. I am not trying to diminish her experience, but I did feel it a bit childish. I mean, if the worst thing something ever said to you is "you're the worst that happened to your parents" then you clearly haven't been really exposed. On the other hand, a toxic relationship can be traumatic, but to love someone and how we experience that emotion is a personal choice; it should never depend on what others did or do.
While I agree on the request for more conversations in this podcast, I have to strongly disagree on the take that (I'll paraphrase) "she hasn't been through enough to give trulyhelpful insights". It's not like we need to find the person who has been through the worst, compared to everyone else, and they're the only one who can speak to it, and all of their experiences and take-aways are universally applicable. The value of experiences lies in their diversity. And that's not only the diversity of scenarios that can happen to a person, but also the diversity of the people making an experience. Hers will be majorly helpful for those who have been or are in similar situations. There's no reason to diminish the experience and the resulting insights, just because there are worse scenarios. I think it's even the contrary: people need to understand that their actions have an impact on others, even if they just verbally slap them and don't outright verbally punch them hard into their face. The experience is real and valid, and so are the ways to deal with it. I don't think we need to measure up experiences against one another in this way. It's not a sport, but just life, with all the stuff it brings.
@@BadNessie Well elaborated argument. However, I did not mean to diminish her life experience. I couldn't have possibly known how much she's been through. However, opinions and perceptions are not like colors... They're not static, or absolute. While I stand on my original comment, I enjoyed the podcast and found it insightful, but the main topic was touched merely on the surface. Anyways, I can't understand how much it must have hurt her when someone told her that, so I am not comparing my suffering to hers, but I am comparing that particular point to mine from dislexic to dislexic, nothing else.

Never heard about Georgia before. Love to hear how healthy she approaches her life. A lot of wisdom for a young person. Her parents should be proud.
I loved this!
