My guest this episode is Louise Barnett. She's the host of the podcast Unmasking Sobriety and Mental Health and the author of the forthcoming book, Tainted Love, A Bipolar Memoir. Her work is focused on shattering mental health and addiction stigmas. And I first learned of her by seeing a Father's Day post where she talked about her husband's adoption of her daughter, his stepdaughter.
In this conversation, Louise Barnett shares her journey through mental health challenges, addiction, and the path to sobriety. She discusses her experiences with bipolar disorder, the impact of her relationships, and the importance of acceptance and personal growth. Louise also reflects on her role as a mother and the journey of adoption, emphasizing the significance of love and stability in her life.
