Episode #101 - The Importance of Mental Health Conversations with Crystle Lampitt The EnRich Your Soul Podcast

    • Management

WELCOME TO EPISODE #101 OF THE ENRICH YOUR SOUL PODCAST

As we start a new year and a new decade, most of the world have made resolutions. The importance of change comes about rampantly at this time of year which causes us to pause and evaluate our lives.

While many will focus on their weight, their job and other day-to-day elements, rarely do you hear someone say “I’m going to focus more on my mental health.”

The main reason why is because there is a stigma around mental health and admitting when we are at breaking points or simply when we need help.

My resolution is to do all I can to break this stigma.

Crystle Lampitt, a television personality in Kansas City, is using her platform to do the same thing.

She is the on-air Host of KMCI-TV (38 The Spot), and the Digital Reporter for KSHB-TV’s 4 p.m. newscast, The Now (41 Action News). We began a conversation when I started noticing a segment on her show called “The Mental Health Minute" where she and her co-host, Kelly Nyberg, would discuss various self-care & mental health issues that affect the vast majority of us.

Why was this impactful to me? I just loved that someone was even discussing it on TV on a regular basis and I wanted to learn more about Crystle’s background and reasoning for doing this.

In this episode, you’ll hear about Crystle’s background, her interest in psychology and mental health and her path to her current role in television. She’ll also share her own views on mental health awareness, different topics that she struggles with and how she thinks we can all come together on the topic by simply discussing it more.

We also put together a brilliant playlist of positive songs that encourage us both and hopefully will encourage you as well. You can listen to it on Spotify here: The Crystle Ball of Happiness and below.

Do you have a topic you'd like me to discuss? Do you want to share your story? Do you know someone who has a fantastic story to share?
