In this episode, we talk about something a lot of people are don’t always say out loud how voting, current political tension, and voter suppression can affect our mental health, especially when it feels like the system is working against people instead of for them.

I’m so excited to share the latest episode of Helpful Conversations with Jamie

We talk about what it really means to understand mental health, not just as a buzzword, but as a lived experience. We explore how to honor it, both in ourselves and in others by slowing down, listening more deeply, and letting go of judgment. And most importantly, we talk about how we can spread awareness together, in ways that are real, compassionate, and everyday.

In our Helpful Hand segment, we spotlight ​Mental Health First Aid​ a powerful tool that equips everyday people to recognize when someone is struggling and respond with care and confidence. Because sometimes, being there for someone starts with simply knowing how.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, unseen, or unsure how to support someone else, this conversation is for you.

Take a moment to listen. And if it resonates, share it with someone who might need it too. You never know who could use a reminder that they’re not alone.

I’m so excited to share the latest episode of Helpful Conversations with Jamie  "Breaking the Silence: A Real Conversation About Mental Health, Therapy, and Healing."

This one gets personal. We’re talking openly about therapy, medication, and the real journey of mental health. The struggles, the breakthroughs, and why these conversations matter now more than ever (especially during Mental Health Awareness Month).

It’s raw, it’s honest, and it’s a reminder that healing starts with speaking up.

Millions of people apply for medicaid and just sit and wait. This is disturbing and so many people suffer from this. Not only people but hospitals and jobs as well. This episode is information heavy so be sure to bring your pens and paper to take notes.

Peter Justen is the founder of AmeriTrust a company that takes the burden and has found a way to speed up the process by helping the application for medicaid to go so much smoother. I really enjoyed this conversation and I know you will too.

Self-care helps support your body and mind, while soul care nourishes your heart, spirit, and sense of purpose. If you’ve been pouring into everyone else and forgetting yourself, this conversation will help you pause, reflect, and take a more intentional approach to wellness. Tune in for practical insight, gentle encouragement, and a reminder that caring for yourself goes deeper than rest alone.

Do you ever wonder how your culture shaped how you viewed mental health. If you ever wonder how mental health is viewed in your family, ask an elder and see what they say. In today's episode I am going to dive in and talk about how culture can impact our view on mental health.
