Having my own lived experience with both BiPolar II Depression and Alcoholism, I have always found it both comforting and inspiring to listen to other people’s lived experiences. Their courage and vulnerability offered me the hope I desperately needed and inspired me to launch a podcast dedicated solely to sharing people's lived experience with different mental health and behavioral challenges. Each week a courageous guest will share with us what their life was like before, during and after their respective experiences and some advice they'd give to those who are struggling today.
