In this powerful episode, we delve into Heartstopper Season 3, Episode 2, "Home," which shines a poignant light on two deeply personal and emotional storylines: Darcy’s journey through parental rejection & homelessness and Charlie’s ongoing battle with his eating disorder.

Joining Jamie for this heartfelt discussion are special guests Ben Dalitz from AKT (Albert Kennedy Trust), a queer charity dedicated to supporting LGBTQ+ young people facing homelessness, and Tim from Tandem Counselling, who brings valuable insights into the complexities of eating disorders and mental health within the queer community.

Together, we unpack the raw emotions, the layered storytelling, and the broader social issues raised in this episode. We explore what it means to find a "home," both physically and emotionally, and the importance of fostering understanding and compassion for those navigating similar challenges in real life.

Whether you're a fan of Heartstopper or an advocate for LGBTQ+ rights, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in for an eye-opening and empowering conversation. 💕🏳️‍🌈
