Mel Bampton Presents...How Human
This podcast is all about exploring what it means to be human. What traits, qualities and experiences we share, no matter how different we are and in searching for and celebrating our differences, finding our similarities.
Do you ever find yourself plagued with uncertainty? Paralysed by self-doubt? Are you ever confused about what to do, how to behave, what to say or even what to feel? Being human is weird. It comes with no instruction manual, it’s riddled with contradictions and as we age we seem to get less and more wise, just when we think we’ve figured something out, everything changes, again.
This podcast is that missing handbook - in which we go deeper than just the details of the stories and by looking through different lenses, we find the things that truly make us…human.
My name is Mel Bampton, I’m a presenter, a speaker, an author and a therapist and in this series I’m bringing all those things together to help you agonise a little less by understanding a little more the things that are fundamentals, not flaws, of what it means to be one of this bizarre and curious species.
This is the podcast where you learn to become a little kinder to yourself by first and foremost understanding what you fundamentally are.

How To Transform The Death Of A Sibling Into Salvation with Hannah Darling
Hannah Darling is abundant in life's extremes. She is poetry in motion and an alchemist turning despair, hardships and challenges into things of great beauty.
From shining on the stage in the Australian series The Voice, to loving someone in the chaos of heroin addiction. She has seen the pointy fringes of life's edges first-hand.
Hold onto your hearts friends, there’s a bumpy, beautiful ride ahead. Hannah Darling writes incredible songs, full of delicate stories that manage to pound at the door of your heart – and - she has a beautiful voice. Her gift comes to life in sound. A strange irony for her Mum, who was born a CODA – child of deaf adults – who became Mum to a singer. Hannah Darling, along with her Mum, navigates two worlds – a world heaving with soundscapes and a world where sound is absent. But that’s just a portion of Hannah’s tale - she grew up in a house of brothers - of drug addiction – it’s very worst consequence and it’s most unforeseen outcome. Hannah’s fragility alchemises into strength through a trait that perhaps is the most absolute definition of human – the capacity to turn suffering into art.
in the deaf community, Hannah and her Mum run festivals, events and immersive, nurturing, uplifting retreat experiences. Their aim – to fill the void between the most basic supports and the things that make a human life really worth living.
