Millie Mackintosh
Season 7, Episode 3: Showing Up For Tomorrow’s You with Millie Mackintosh.
“ I didn’t have any concept of self-care… I didn’t have any routine. I hadn’t discovered at that stage yet how useful exercise can be to help aid mental health. I didn’t have any thoughts about my mental health. I just knew I felt awful, but I didn’t have any idea or tools to help make myself feel better. ”
Today Caggie is joined by her childhood friend and former castmate of Made in Chelsea, Millie Mackintosh. In this conversation Millie opens up about her experience of bullying at school, a very formative time in our lives, and the toll this took on her mental health and the aftermath this had in later years.
They discuss Millie’s transition from more turbulent times in her twenties into motherhood and the gratitude and fulfilment she feels from this aspect of herself. Often our twenties can be a vulnerable and challenging time and, as we go through our Saturn Return, we are forced to re-evaluate and make necessary changes. In this conversation, Millie discusses the importance she now places on showing up for tomorrow’s you and her journey with looking deeper into alcohol and the effects it had on her anxiety.
Both Millie and Caggie discuss their sober curious journeys and their reasons for choosing to redefine their relationship with alcohol after questioning the cost conforming to this social norm was having on their mental wellbeing.
