The one where Misty comes to Melbourne

Our guest Misty Farquhar comes all the way from Perth, Australia. They are a Researcher, Educator, and Advocate. They are a radio presenter on “All Things Queer” which is Perth’s only dedicated queer talks-based radio program. And as we said on our show possibly a “Dr. Who?” Misty has over 10 years of leadership experience in community and organisational development across the private, public, and community sectors and we are excited they decided to join us while they are passing through Melbourne. On today’s show we get to know Misty and they get to know us as we talk language and differences in gender identities.         *** We know that sometimes it can be hard to know who to talk to if you are experiencing a mental health crisis. If you do not have family and friends living nearby or a strong local support network it can be hard to get through difficult times on your own. Whether you are in a crisis or you just feel down and need to talk to someone, it is important to know that help is available at all hours of the day and night. There are many free mental health hotlines and mental health online support services across Victoria, which provide crisis support, information, resources, counselling and therapy to people of all ages.
