It is always the right time, the right month, to celebrate mental health and prioritizing our own mental health. Brenda Reid is our guests on the Celebrate BRAVE podcast and she shares her deeply personal and universal mental health story.

2017 was the year that broke Brenda. It was the year of death by a thousand paper-cuts.

First, she powering on in her professional and personal life. Then, beginning 2018, she discovered she had no joy left in her life.

Brenda’s brave moment came when she pressed PAUSE. She took a leave of absence at a difficult time at work. She went and got support from her doctor and therapist and learned how to prioritize her mental health sot hat she earned her mojo back.

By telling her story on the Celebrate Brave podcast Brenda hopes to help at least one other person to press pause at the right moment.

Please listen to this episode and please share it with others, people who are showing you how to prioritize mental health as a thank you and people who may need a role model for choosing their own health.

If you feel you are struggling please see the full show notes for organizations that want to support you around the world.
