EP: 87 - It's A New Era For Mental Health!

“You don’t have to be positive all the time. It’s perfectly okay to feel sad, angry, annoyed, frustrated, scared and anxious. Having feelings doesn’t make you a negative person. It makes you human.” – Lori Deschene

Welcome to Episode 87: It's A New Era For Mental Health!

Mental health is important. In reality, it has always been important but with the state of the world today, it's even more important now more than ever!

The world has been in shambles for a couple years (and counting) now. There is endless amount of heightened pain and suffering and it sadly doesn't look as though that's' going to change any time soon.

... the never-ending pandemic ... new strains of scary virus' popping up ... bad governments, politics, and conspiracies ... the war between Ukraine and Russia ... truth and reconciliation with the Indigenous peoples ... the floods across the USA and Afghanistan ... droughts across multiple areas of the world ... riots and rallies and endless bouts of racism … rising grocery and gas prices due to a recession.

All this pain and suffering is not something empaths like myself are able to take lightly. Even though it's not all personally happening to us, we feel #AllTheFeels as though it is. We're highly attuned to everything around us at quite a deep emotional level. And that makes it very hard to function at a "normal" level. So, we need to take action on an entirely different level in order to not let the world take us down.

Here's what we will be untangling in this episode ...

• What to do to protect your mental health
• What’s been going on over here on our end
• Mental health facts and statistics (recent)
• How to keep your entrepreneurial spirit alive
• To Write Love On Her Arms (TWLOHA)
