Today I have a powerful conversation with Jennifer. You will hear her tell her story of the trauma- addiction- mental health-roller coaster that she was on for nearly 27 years before hitting bottom & starting to crawl back up. Jennifer struggled with serious suicidal thoughts at the bottom and she discusses it very candidly & I firmly believe that engaging in these conversations is where hope lives, hope blossoms & ultimately where change grows from.
You will hear her discuss how the relief of a bipolar diagnosis became a "prison" of a a diagnosis to the promises of diagnosis as she sees it now & the hope she lives with today.
