To be honest this was not what I originally planned to be the topic of my first episode. But this is what needed to be shared today. 

"I don't know how you do it".... I cant tell you how many times someone in my life has said this to me. My inner voice has always laughed and wondered what other choice do I have? Can you relate? But the reality is we do have a choice.  

I am so happy as a society we are getting more comfortable talking abut mental health... but we have a long way to go!!

We hear so much of "Check up on your friends", "Ask them how they are doing, How are they really doing?"

In this episode I share small but impactful ways to show up for others. To be a light in the dark for someone else who is struggling.

I can not emphasize this enough....If someone opens up to you and shares...Friends you better show the F*CK UP!

Asking questions is not enough.. its our job to take it further, to be HUMAN beings and show up for each other. 

Let them know we heard them, let them know we care, let them know they matter...

Talking about mental illness is not attention seeking it is BRAVE. We are all in this together each and everyone of us can make a difference in someone else’s life.

Show up, love one another, be vulnerable!
You belong here!

Love and lite until next time my friends.
