Mayank and Ujjwal sit down with a great friend and Indoor Cricket captain, Tom Monagle. We reflect on a truly inspiring journey, delving into the challenges growing up in with Tourettes syndrome and his experiences with Sexual Abuse. We found this conversation truly insightful as we learnt how the challenging experiences in Tom's life have shaped him into the person he is today where he has a powerful story to share with everyone.

Bottled Up recognises that the themes discussed in this episode are intense and can have a different effect on people, but having these conversations is imperative in ensuring that these topics are normalised.
