Antek Benedyka - Coming Full Circle Part 2

Wednesday, 28 August 2024 - 5:00pm to 5:30pm

Welcome to the second part of Antek Benedyka's story - Coming Full Circle.

Antek is a proud genderqueer person from the LGBTI community, a social and political activist, and has worked with refugee settlements as a social worker for the past decade.

In this episode we will be talking about his journey coming out as gay and then genderqueer, what keeps him mentally well, radical self-actualisation, advice for young people with mental health challenges, how to have self-care when you are in the caring profession and breaking the cycle of trauma.

Grab a cuppa, settle in, and enjoy this insightful and illuminating story.
