Mariel & Melissa's very special guest today is Shanna Angel, Head of Sun Valley Ketamine Clinic in Ketchum Idaho.

The Sun Valley Ketamine Clinic is the first and only IV Ketamine Infusion Therapy Clinic in the Wood River Valley.

Almost 30% of Idahoans have been diagnosed with mental health challenges compared to 18% nationally. Mental Health America ranks Idaho at 50th with its high prevalence of mental illness and low rate of access to care. They are one of the few providers in Idaho to offer this life-saving treatment for depression, anxiety, PTSD, suicidal ideation, and more.

In the second half of the show, Mariel & Melissa talk about the importance of community and the impact of community on a person's mental health, as well as the pros and cons of instant information through sources like social media and 24hr news.
