Patty Murray, musician, songwriter and mental health advocate Enlighten: Uplift & Inspire

    • Personal Journals

My guest today is Patty Murray - just to be clear, that is ‘Patty Murray, the sister’ - not ‘Patty Murray the senator!’ Patty is a musician, songwriter and mental health advocate extraordinaire. Even though Patty doesn’t have a social work license, she has the heart and soul of social worker, having compassionately championed her sister’s medical and mental health care for nearly 40 years.

As a free lance musician, Patty has brought her music and joyful spirit to clubs, recording studios, and facilities for those we deem ‘marginalized’. She cares deeply about valuing the worth and dignity of everyone she meets. Patty knows intimately how vital it is to change our perception, resources, access to resources, treatment, research, policy, culture and legislation, regarding mental health. I am honored to call this compassionate, courageous, joyful human my friend.

Check out the links below for Patty’s website and her social media platforms as well as her 4 part web series “Special Kind of Wrong”. Enjoy the podcast!
