A message from Hannah Whitfield, the host of (no longer) Legally Detained: “I have learnt to stop rushing things which need time to grow." Yes, it's a little later than originally planned but I am learning to practice what I preach, learning not to rush, not to panic - to realise I do have time has been a big part of my journey. After ‘missing out' on so many things and feeling like I was ‘behind' in life, has meant I've felt like I'm in a race against time, trying to do everything all the time. This has led to me spreading myself too thin, burning myself out and not allowing myself to feel present in the moment. It's been a long journey and will continue to be, but I am excited to be relaunching (no longer) Legally Detained - the podcast about life after the psych ward. How do you navigate being an adult when you never expected to be one?  This podcast is a follow on from my blog and is my baby. This means so much to me and, in many ways, symbolises my growth, where I was, where I am now and my reason for being. I am excited to share this with you all in collaboration with Be the change.
