Today I continue my conversation with author Stefanie Santone. We have a very open conversation about our struggles with mental wellness - and the important part that writing, reading, and stories have played in helping us in our journey. This is a topic that I have wanted to discuss for awhile, and I am grateful that Stefanie was willing to be open with her journey. We also talk about her nickname "The Mindful Scribe" - and how she came to claim it! I hope that you will be inspired to keep creating, to be kind to yourself, and if you need help I hope that there is a friend or counselor you can reach out to.
