Revisiting a beautiful episode focusing on the search for your passions while also working through mental health challenges. Today's guest is not a mental health practitioner, but rather someone who is going to therapy, working through each day, and sharing her struggles and triumphs with others along the way. It takes a lot of strength to do that, and she is helping others by finding ways to incorporate this information and encouragement into her life, in addition to finishing grad school and exploring what's next...
JJ Kells comes to us today from Chicago, and while most of us get anxious about not knowing what's next, JJ adds a unique perspective: "I actually don't mind not knowing what's next." She calls herself a "wanderer", and indeed has already had such an interesting, varied life despite a young age.
JJ has obsessive compulsive disorder, OCD, and she has worked so hard to ensure SHE runs her life, not it. "It's a part of my experience all day everyday," but listen to how JJ explains her journey discovering so much about herself, therapy, tactics to cope with the stressors, and more.
This month, we've been rebroadcasting episodes each Monday, while releasing new episodes on Fridays. Today's episode is a rebroadcast from June 2022. On Friday, you'll hear from Harry Duran of Podcast Junkies and overall fascinating human.
