135. A Conversation About Creativity and Mental Health


Listen Later

Mental health concerns continue to rise.

 

19.86% of adults in the US are experiencing some form of mental illness. That’s equivalent to nearly 50 million Americans.

 

As a creative person, I know all too well the struggles that mental health can present when trying to show up for your creativity. Depression, anxiety, burnout, fear… 

 

I’ve found that when creative people are willing to be real and vulnerable about their experiences around mental health, our stories are not so different. Yet, so many struggle in silence, and in shame. 

 

I want to bring more conversation and awareness around mental health and creativity, to normalize some of the experiences we may have had. So creative people don't feel alone. And can start, or keep taking steps towards health while pursuing their creativity.

This is my most vulnverable episode yet, as I share my story and experiences around mental health and creatvity.
