Beyond the Veil
by Madison Ford & Rebecca ShermanBeyond the Veil is a Potter podcast all about mental health and resparking the joy we had the first time we read the books. The Potter series has helped fans deal with mental health crises, overcome major obstacles, and made powerful, positive changes in their lives with the help and support of the Harry Potter series. With dozens of lessons in mind after conversations with fans from around the world, hosts Madison and Rebecca are rereading the series with the hopes to learn a few more along the way. DISCLAIMER: We are not mental health professionals, just two Potterheads who love talking about mental health. Nothing in this podcast should be taken as professional mental health advice.
