Pivot Happens

Pivot Happens

Pivot Happens is the plucky little podcast that could. We look at the pivots in life that help us change our path or show us where we need to be and how to wrangle the resilience to do so in style. We call ourselves the Unprofessional Armchair Psychologists, but this is pure silliness and if you need REAL mental heal help, please reach out. If you need to connect, you can reach NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) at Call: 1-800-950-6264, Text “NAMI” to 62640, or if you're in a crisis, Call or Text 988. Don't wait! Your pivot may be just around the corner and we want you here and healthy for it.
