Mental Health with Sonja Wasden
Mental health. We use those words a lot, but we never allow ourselves to talk about in public. As if discussing it will make us seem weaker, or informing people around us will only hold us back. That's flat out not true though. Some people might always be insecure jerks looking to bring you down, but there are also many genuinely good hearted people who need you to speak up.
This is going to be a kind of heavy episode with lots of potentially unpleasant topics. I do think it's important for as many people to listen as they can though.
My guest today is Sonja Wasden. Sonja struggled with depression, bipolar, obsessive compulsive, and anxiety disorders for 30 years before
attempting suicide. She is now a keynote speaker and award winning author talking publicly about the need for more mental health awareness.
If you want to help the show grow, rate it five stars on iTunes, Spotify, or Audible.
If you have not already, please tell someone you know to listen to this show. It gets people to listen more listeners than anything else.
I'm always looking for new topics, guest ideas, and questions from the audience. To reach out to me email [email protected] or send a message on any of the show pages on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, or wherever else.
I'm still a featured show on the Podbean podcast streaming service which has lasted longer than I ever imagined! It's where most of my listeners come from, so check it out if you are getting tired of certain other podcast apps crashing or injecting ads into your shows.
July Top countries (so far):
1. United States, losing ground to other countries and now with top states California and Oregon.
2. Australia, still led by New South Wales.
3. Canada, new top province Alberta just barely beating out Ontario.
4. United Kingdom
5. Germany, narrowly bumping South Africa down to #6.
If you didn't know, I've switched things up a bit and am doing episodes twice a week for now. I hope you enjoy the extra episodes each week.
I'll see you all Thursday for the next, scandalous episode.
