From the outside, Mackenzie was a student athlete and business owner with a bright future. Behind the scenes, she was fighting a silent battle with depression and suicidal thoughts.

In this conversation, Mackenzie opens up about her childhood, the loss of her grandmother, the pressures of college athletics, and the weight of living in silence. She shares how journaling, therapy, inpatient treatment, and building her brand Stay Another Day helped her find hope and purpose again.

This episode is a reminder that vulnerability is strength, that you don’t have to go through hard things alone, and that there are always reasons to stay another day.
