Bipolar and Me with Mia Hodgkinson

In this episode, we talk about living with the condition of Bipolar with Mia Hodgkinson. We discuss the misunderstandings and misconceptions surrounding the condition.

We talk about Mia’s path to diagnosis, how telling her boss about her bipolar condition went horribly wrong. She shares her tips on what to do if a colleague shares their diagnosis with you.
