Learn to Empower Yourself!

This week on the BrainTap Business Journal Podcast we warmly welcome superstar Mariel Hemingway. Ms. Hemingway is a well-known actress starring in films such as Manhattan, Personal Best, Star 80 and the Mean Season. She’s also the acclaimed author of “Finding My Balance: A Memoir,” “Invisible Girl,” and “Out Came the Sun: Overcoming the Legacy of Mental Illness, Addiction, and Suicide in My Family,” among others. She now focuses her energy on finding peace for herself and for people suffering from mental health disorders–something she is acutely familiar with.

With seven suicides in her family, including her grandfather Earnest Hemingway and her sister Margaux Hemingway, Mariel has learned from the inside out the importance of mental health and balance in her life. She has become passionate about sharing that with the world, especially young people today who find it so difficult to separate themselves from what they see on social media.
Says Hemingway in an interview, “I did suffer depression myself; it wasn’t clinical depression, but I had a genetic predisposition for it. I grew up watching a family that was completely amazing and creative but also destructive and self-medicating. All of them, they were addicts. I didn’t want to end up like that. I was on a mission.” That mission resulted in a documentary called “Running From Crazy,” which aired in 2013, and a newfound purpose in life–helping erase the stigma of mental health issues so people can get the help they need.

During this time of quarantine and isolation, helping people find balance amidst the chaos is her new quest. She feels the world has become a much smaller place as people pause and regroup, and she offers tips on how to live your best life while in unique circumstances. Listen in now to hear this amazing podcast interview. It’s guaranteed to change your perspective on life and how you live it.
