This is a special episode where I am interviewed by Katie Truitt from the United Way of Central Maryland's Barrier Breakers podcast. I had the opportunity of being a guest speaker on the podcast along with Gwen Schemm, a former Division II athlete who now works at United Way.

• The signs of mental health challenges so that you can seek help for yourself and/or  check-in on others who may be suffering
• Why certain communities face stigmas and barriers to accessing the help they need.
•  Listen and learn how you can guide your own healing journey--and help others.

Resources mentioned in this episode:

In this episode we discuss:

• Finding our worthiness outside of our roles and responsibilities and learning to place value in who we are aside from those identities 
• What healing has looked like for her, as an adoptee and someone who struggled with undereating, which contributed to health issues
• Learning how to talk more kindly to herself and not participate in self-deprecating behaviors 
• Learning to identify our triggers and then setting up a plan for how we want to respond, so we can minimalize spiraling and negative self-talk  
• Examining how our entire society is impacted by white supremacy and exploring the ways in which the system steals our self-worth and causes us to place our value in “doing” versus being 
• Why she chose to deconstruct her faith and what that process has been like for her as she continues to evolve
