Behind Beautiful Things is the new name for the podcast Sad Times.
Bob Dylan once said, "Behind every beautiful thing, there's been some kind of pain".
Behind Beautiful Things is a Mental Health Podcast focused on storytelling. Each episode of Behind Beautiful Things features a guest, and we talk with them about how sadness manifests within them; what type of behavior that may surface as a result from being sad, upset, or troubled.
We believe as a society we don't always share the feelings, thoughts and actions that accompany these moments. We hope the stories told in these episodes will help the listener feel less alone and perhaps a bit more empathetic in day to day life.
This week, we welcome in Janet and Jenny, a mother and daughter. During this episode, we will discuss Jenny’s diagnosis of autism, how her mother, Janet, struggled to find help and resources, the challenges they both faced as Jenny was growing up, and their shared journey to thriving. Janet and Jenny have shared their story far and wide. Jenny has also written two books of her own (with more to come!). Please join us for this episode as we discuss the story of these two amazing people!
Warning: There are descriptions of bullying in this episode — please take care while listening.
