    013: Learning to live with Depression, Social Anxiety & Body Image w/ Sandy Li Cofounder of PUSHAS

    This week's conversation is with Sandy Li cofounder of Pushas. She is an extremely inspiring woman and I'm so grateful for this conversation because in this episode she was so open about her struggles with depression, bullying, body image & social anxiety. At first glance, I would've never expected someone as outgoing, friendly and social as herself would be struggling with depression but as I dug deeper in our conversation I realised she looks at the world and people through a profound lens of kindness.
