ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
The conversation around mental health and wellbeing is being elevated after the experience we've all had during the pandemic. However, an incredible amount of stigma still exists around seeking help for a mental health condition.
This week, we're diving deep into what it means to break that stigma, seek out the help you need, and support others in their mental health quest.
I interviewed Sara Schley for the recent Global Resilience Summit, and I instantly knew I had to have her on the show. Sara is the author of the acclaimed memoir, BrainStorm: From Broken to Blessed on the Bipolar Spectrum.
During our conversation, Sara recounts her personal journey on the bipolar spectrum from the days when she was misdiagnosed to getting a correct diagnosis 25 years later. After 40 years of living with this condition, Sara has broken her silence and is speaking out about her experience and the importance of caring for our own mental health. Sara also has a very practical, actionable 4-point plan for helping support others going through their own struggles.
We need to continue the conversation around mental health and wellbeing. People's lives are on the line. Thank you to Sara for her bravery and willingness to share her story for us all to learn from.
