Welcome to the Super Feeler podcast! In this first episode Laurie and her dad, Dean, we're here to introduce the concept of Super Feelers and share a bit about Laurie's life story with a variety of mental health issues including borderline personality disorder, anxiety, panic disorder, and some possible undiagnosed conditions like OCD and a couple of eating disorders. She also talks about her physical health challenges, such as chronic pain and SVT. 

Laurie explains her decision to be open about her diagnoses and the importance of destigmatizing borderline personality disorder, the value of peer support and the beauty of her peer support program called The Super Feelers Club, and what to expect on the podcast in the future!
