About the Guest:

Dr Terry Lim runs the Mindsight Clinic, where he's tackling some of psychiatry's toughest challenges—psychosis, schizophrenia, and complex mental health disorders most clinicians find overwhelming. His approach? Early intervention and actually understanding patients as whole people, not just symptoms.
As director, Terry's become a respected voice pushing for better mental health systems across Australia. He's not afraid to challenge psychiatric care methods and advocate for treatments that genuinely work, making him essential listening for anyone interested in mental health reform.

Key Takeaways:
Understanding Psychosis: Psychosis, a syndrome with groups of symptoms, can result from several causes, including mental illness, substance use, and environmental stress.
Systemic Challenges: The episode highlighted systemic disjointedness between police, health services, and community resources that can lead to gaps in patient care.
Early Intervention: Dr. Lim emphasised the importance of early intervention and holistic treatment approaches in improving patient outcomes for conditions like schizophrenia.
Role of Society: Support systems, including family and societal awareness, play a crucial role in the early detection and management of mental health conditions.
Ethical Dilemmas: The conversation addressed the ethical challenges of involuntarily committing individuals for treatment while balancing individual freedom and public safety.

She Wasn’t Born Yesterday tackles the many unique issues affecting women who are 40+ fabulous. No topic is too controversial!

She Wasn't Born Yesterday

How do you deal with the ‘pause’? How do you know you’re dating someone with a narcissistic personality disorder? How do you move on from divorce? Behind the scenes of a 40+ influencer and how to reverse the aging process, are just a few topics tackled.

SWBY features Janet Evans, a senior advertising creative and Jenni Woodhouse, a semi retired social worker. A chance interview on radio station Hope 103.2 about the book inspired the podcast.

“So many unique issues affect women of our age, including empty nest syndrome, and nothing’s off limits in SWBY! We really dive headfirst into them, but hopefully with lightness and relevant wit where possible,” Janet commented. “We were incredibly lucky to chat to some very high profile guests, including CEOs of important organisations, who shared their expertise with us and our audience.”
