  • 17-Yr Old Njeri Mwangi Talks Living With Schizophreniform Disorder

    I had the pleasure of hosting Njeri Mwangi and I have to say it has been one of the toughest ones so far.

    She talks about being diagnosed and living with Schizophreniform disorder, a psychotic disorder that affects how a patient perceives reality. She’s the very first underage guest I’ve hosted in my entire career and she really challenged me with how open she was to sharing her story boldly and her determination to embrace the journey she’s on.

    Help us get this message in front of as many people as possible by sharing this episode.
