To mark Mental Health Awareness Month, Acast is bringing some of Australia’s favourite podcasters together for Sounds Mindful.

Sound mindful is a series of sessions running throughout October, with an open invitation to the media industry, these sessions have been designed with podcasters from across the Acast Creator Network.

Each one breaks up the norms of the working day – whether that’s through rebalancing with exercise, cooking, or hearing stories of incredible resilience.

Liam Daly, group sales lead for Acast Australia and New Zealand, said: “In essence, podcasts are about storytelling, providing a space for anyone and everyone, no matter their background, to share their story and Acast gives a platform to all those stories.

“There’s compassion, companionship and comfort to be found from all sorts of situations, and we want to share more of these stories and conversations, especially after what has been a difficult few months for everyone.

“We’d love to see as many people as possible at the four events, so we’ve made it super simple to register on the website.

“Whether you join pilates with Alexis or sit down with a coffee to hear from the incredibly resilient Stuart Diver, Sounds Mindful gives our clients and colleagues the opportunity to take some time out for themselves, and break up their day with something different while shining a light on mental health.”

What’s happening:

  • Wednesday, October 6 at 8.00am: Pilates with Alexis Fernandez, host of Do You F*cking Mind?
  • Thursday, October 14 at 10.00am: A conversation and Q&A on resilience with Stuart Diver, the sole survivor of the Thredbo landslide and host of The Elements
  •  Thursday, October 21 at 9.00am: A chat about mental health with Osher Günsberg (Better Than Yesterday) and Alisha Aitken-Radburn (In The House & In The Senate), who together co-host The Reality Bite: Cocktails and Roses
