My Session with Stylebender's Therapist - Discussing Trauma & Mental Health with Janet Redmond

Janet Redmond calls herself a possibility manager. That title is basically her reworking of the word therapist.

She was previously a trauma specialist, training psychotherapists and counsellors.

I reached out to Janet immediately after watching the Israel Adesanya documentary movie, “Stylebender.” I thought this grandmother from Nelson in the campervan the surprise star of the film.

This is a podcast of two halves. We chat about her relationship with Izzy and a little bit about who she is and what she does to help people. Then, she gets to work on me. Janet is an incredible human with an amazing gift. But I’ve been scared about sharing it. I guess because I still feel embarrassed when I cry or show some vulnerability. I know that allowing yourself to be vulnerable is a strength and not a weakness. And it’s something I encourage from my guests. But it is still something I am struggling with myself.

Thanks to my mates at Generate and Radix for sponsoring this episode.

I recently found out that around half a million Kiwis are missing out on the KiwiSaver Government contribution, which is an extra $521 each year. That’s extra money, that’s well worth getting if you can.

That's where Generate comes in – they make this stuff easy. They have a team of advisers who can go over your options and help make sure you’re getting the most out of your KiwiSaver investment. If you’ve never got KiwiSaver advice before, do your future self a favor and request a meeting with a Generate advisor:

Radix nutritional products are plain and simply world class. I start every day with a protein shake made with Radix powder. I throw in a banana, maybe some oats and yoghurt, and I’m ready to seize the day. This has been my routine for over 2 years now and I swear by it. If you want to look AND feel good- try Radix.

They also make a range of freeze-dried ready to eat breakfasts and meals which are nothing short of incredible. You just tear the bag open, pour some water in and eat. That’s it. They taste great, fill you up and most importantly, they are healthy!
