Transforming Silence into Dialogue: The Impactful Journey of ‘Sh!t That Goes On In Our Heads’ Podcast

Launched on Valentine’s Day 2023, ‘Sh!t That Goes On In Our Heads’ quickly transcended its role as a podcast to become a pivotal platform for mental health discussion globally.

This remarkable achievement underscores the universal need for more open and accessible discussions about mental health.

The podcast’s origin traces back to a critical turning point in G-Rex’s life—a mental breakdown during a Christmas celebration that led to profound personal revelations and recovery. This experience, coupled with the support she received from mental health professionals and her own network, inspired her to create a space where such transformative conversations could occur regularly and without stigma.

Together with Dirty Skittles, G-Rex has crafted a show that skillfully mixes humor with serious discussion, making the topic of mental health approachable. Each episode is a blend of personal stories, guest experiences, and professional insights, providing listeners with a variety of perspectives on mental health issues. The duo tackles everything from anxiety and depression to relationship dynamics and self-care, always with a focus on supporting and uplifting their audience.

‘Sh!t That Goes On In Our Heads’ stands out not only for its content but for its commitment to creating a genuine community among its listeners. The podcast has become a place where individuals from diverse backgrounds can find common ground in their experiences and share their journeys towards mental wellness. This sense of community is vital in a landscape where isolation and misunderstanding about mental health still exist.

The podcast’s influence extends beyond individual episodes. Through their website and social media channels, G-Rex and Dirty Skittles engage with their audience, offering resources, hosting Q&A sessions, and sharing updates that keep the conversation going. The podcast also features episodes with notable figures in the mental health arena, including Marci Hopkins, whose own story of recovery and advocacy has inspired many.

As ‘Sh!t That Goes On In Our Heads’ continues to grow, its mission remains clear: to demystify mental health issues, promote healing and understanding, and encourage a culture where talking about mental health is as normal as discussing physical health.
