In today's episode, I had the honor of interviewing Michelle Yang. Michelle is on a personal mission to show the world one can live well with bipolar disorder. Tired of the stigma, she is empowered to humanize and normalize mental health illnesses as just another part of the human condition. She recently quit her coveted corporate job to write and advocate for mental health wellness. Michelle has a memoir-in-progress and her articles have been featured on InStyle, HuffPost, and more.

If you or someone you know is struggling with your mental health, there is support. There are others out there who live with mental illness, and seeking help is a strength, not a weakness. NAMI and The Stability Network are a couple of great resources that Michelle mentions in the episode.

Podcasts are free to listen to but time-consuming to make! If you would like to support the podcast through a monthly donation, you can do so through Anchor. 10% of all donations go to World Food Programme, towards their Zero Hunger goal by 2030. I also just launched the Kickstarter campaign for my first solo EP 'Taking Back Me', and would HUGELY appreciate a couple dollars or just sharing the project with a fellow music-lover!
