Conversation with Missy Haze, Creator of 'Comfortable Silence'

Listen until the end for a special gift for you from Missy...

Missy was diagnosed with Bipolar 1 at 16, only a year after surviving the most powerful tornado that destroyed her high school in Enterprise, Alabama and took the lives of 8 of her classmates.

The day of the tornado, Missy describes a memory writing in her journal about not looking forward to a test that day to look backing on the detrimental impact of this day in 2007.

The survivor's guilt cast a weight on Missy she found hard to describe at the time. After receiving her diagnosis she opens up about the emotions that came up and what it felt like to not have anything explained to her.

She also reveals the importance of support from loved ones, as she recalls the roles her family played in helping her through one of her lowest moments. Missy encourages others by reminding them that their lives have purpose, and she express gratitude to those who have supported her along the way.

Journaling has always been Missy's number one savior in navigating her trauma, diagnosis and daily life. Little did she know that it would be the place where her brand, Comfortable Silence, would be born.

Comfortable Silence is a purpose driven clothing brand dedicated to eliminating society's stigma of bipolar disorder and was designed to make those struggling feel less alone.
