Trigger Warning due to discussions of suicide and abuse.

This week Julie and Chrissa are joined by Christopher Birstler, a 4 time suicide attempt survivor who has navigated through systems to get the care and support he needs. He coined the hashtag #SuperAdvocate to describe how advocacy is at the core of his heart. As a survivor of trauma and abuse Christopher boldly proclaims that everyone should at least try therapy with an open mind even if they do not think they will benefit. The founder of a not for profit organization and a learning obsessed growth minded individual just scratches the surface of who Christopher is and who he is meant to be.

This week Julie and Chrissa are joined by Heart and Solutions therapist Maggie Alton. In her work she strives to provide a calm, supportive environment where her clients can feel accepted and safe. In addition to a Master’s in Social Work, Maggie holds a certification in Aging and Longevity Studies.

In this episode we touch on three myths about therapy: That there has to be something “wrong with you” to go to therapy; The stigma around and idea that you are broken if you are asking for help with mental health; That therapy is always formal, regimented, and sterile.

Brieanna believes a peaceful home and a purposeful business can coexist but only with the right level of delegation. After passing out in her car at 7 months pregnant she realized just how bad she was at delegating and asking for the help she needed.
