Different Is Good - a podcast by BBC Radio Scotland

Body image campaigner Stephen Bell tells Gillian Russell about his own experiences of being different and explains why he's created a portrait project celebrating uniqueness by using a group of women who are all disfigured or disabled.

Ahead of Face Equality Day later this month, Rob Murray from Changing Faces talks about why it's important to move beyond the physical to find happiness and confidence. What can we do as individuals - and in society - to take control, raise self-esteem and embrace our differences?

Morag Hearty from NHS South Lanarkshire explains how a ground-breaking text messaging service - "Flo" - is being used to help people with depression and anxiety.

Psychologist and style coach Danit Levi discusses how clothes can have a big impact on our confidence, can be empowering and can help us achieve our personal best ... but what's important isn't the fashion per se, it's about knowing ourselves beyond just that initial image we see in the mirror.
