224: Why Emily Mealey is so grateful her mum insisted she went to the doctor

About this episode

Secondly, you're about to hear Emily Mealey's story, and she's a Senior Account Manager in Insurance at Nutrien, and a mum of two. She's based in Dubbo, and met her husband at the tender age of 18 after having a minor car prang! Financially as a young family, things were tough, really tough, but Emily and her husband made it work. A few years later Emily found herself in a very dark place, and very stressed, and today she talks openly about that time and how she got through it.
