The Lived Experience

The lived experience podcast is about sharing real people's stories of lived experiences on a large range of mental health topics. As a child of a single mother with BiPolar, I wanted to create interviews that would fill the content gap around this subject and lesser-known issues that are covered in the current mental health awareness movement. Mental health awareness and advocacy go far beyond depression and anxiety. I hope these discussions shine a lot on issues you may not be aware of or even inform you that you are not alone. Learn more at www.livedexperiencepodcast.com
