Originally aired on The One You Feed podcast...

Eric and Kimi discuss her journey to healing and how the role of identity can be helpful (or not so helpful) when dealing with depression or mental illness.

"Kimi’s unique specialty is identifying and developing stories with soul. She has traveled the world interviewing hundreds of people and creating content that motivates people to live a happier, more fulfilling life."

In this episode:

• How her internal narrative shifted when she started talking about her mental illness
• The power of knowing we’re not alone in our struggles
• Owning the truth of who we are and also not letting it be your entire identity
• Understanding that we are many parts of the whole being
• The healing journey and how identity can take a more prominent role at the beginning
• The nuances of identifying what is depression
• How labeling depression can be helpful, but over-identifying with that label can be harmful
• The importance of adult friendships
• Comparative suffering
• Gratitude and how it is a powerful tool
• Her collaborative book, A Letter to My Dog
