Episode 27: Balancing Act: Elsa Arnold on Navigating School Bullying, Mental Health, and Charity Support Dilemmas

In this special extra episode of Borderline Podcast Disorder, we dive deep into the complexities of school bullying, mental health, and the nuances of charity support with our distinguished guest, Elsa Arnold. As we navigate through our personal school experiences, Elsa and I uncover the varied ways we each confronted challenges and how these strategies shaped our paths. This conversation also explores the often overlooked topic of supporter's guilt—feeling bad for choosing to support one charity over another—and offers insights into managing this sentiment.Amidst these profound discussions, we also touch upon the critical issue of burnout, providing our listeners with perspectives on recognizing it and strategies for prevention and recovery.
