Back with NP Jamie Plaxco to discuss a variety of mental health topics including trauma, mania, conservatorships, and the cultural phenomenon of legendary pop star Britney Spears. Jamie offers incredible insight from her professional experience as a Psych Nurse and we're able to examine Britney's very public journey from a new angle. 

Sources include the Netflix document Britney vs. Spears and the Hulu documentary TMZ Investigates: Britney Spears: The Price of Freedom 

Back to catch up on what's been happening. I'm a surf competition comic now! Just visited London, am tired of hearing about Adam Levine, and Ukraine is still under attack by Russia. Oh! And if you're an influencer for a living, you're probably not working *that* hard.
