This Is Temporary

Meet Jenna from Empowering Mindsets (ig: @empoweringmindsets_j )! She is an artist, student and mental health advocate. Jenna uses her experiences with anxiety and eating disorder recovery to help encourage, empower and comfort others who can relate. Her @BlissfulStarClub account is dedicated to her mental health illustrations and workbooks filled with positive messages about self love, growth and healing. Jenna has learned a whole lot through struggling with anorexia, orthorexia and cultural stigmas. She inspirationally believes that our hardships help us because healing from them allows us to align with our truest selves. You can tell from her social media pages that she is the most genuine light of a human. I'm so grateful she's found her voice and is now sharing it for the benefit of the world!

Intro/Outro Song: "Waves" by Logan Bowden 

Meet Johnny Webster (ig: @JustJohnnyWebster)! He is a talent manager and facilitator of dreams. Johnny exudes JOY and he's created @JustBlackBoyJoy - a fun space dedicated to celebrating that joy with others! Great joy comes from knowing great pain. In this episode, we talk about Johnny's journey with depression, anxiety, addiction recovery and mental health in the Black community. This wild year forced Johnny to ask himself, "What fear am I living in that is blocking me from being my authentic, loving and joyful self?" Life is especially uncertain right now - but that uncertainty doesn't have to be negative. We have to live less in fear and more in excitement, risk and hope. To find your joy in the midst of it all, Johnny suggests doing what you love to do just to enjoy your own laugh and smile!

Meet Myles Matsuno (ig: @myles_matsuno)! He is a fantastic. director and impressivemarathon runner! In this episode, Myles and I talk about his experiences with anxiety, comparison, depression and redefining success. As a very disciplined runner, Myles certainly knows a lot about pacing yourself and focusing on short increments at a time. That "one foot in front of the other" mentality has helped him in all areas of life. Myles is one of the most talented, humble and kindest people I've ever had the pleasure of working with. His brave, creative spirit inspires me so much and I know that his episode will for you as well! For more of his work check out his website: www.MylesMatsuno.com

Meet Austin Zajur (ig: @austinzajur) & Harley Quinn Smith (ig: @harleyquinnsmith)! They are both incredibly talented actors and Harley is also an activist with a new podcast out called Vegan Abattoir! I'm elated that they are my first featured couple! Navigating mental health inside of a relationship is a whole new challenge that requires additional awareness & emotional communication skills. Not only do I admire their authenticity & vulnerability, but they also brought up some very relatable realities. Harley & Austin divulged their experiences with depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, therapy & grief while also providing messages of acceptance, compassion, courage, priorities and the healing process of letting someone in to help. These healthy perspectives have helped them to get past their pasts and be more present with each other now. <3

Meet Samantha Cormier (ig: @samantha__cormier)! She is a mesmerizing actor and one of the brightest shining, positive souls I have ever met. Sammie's precious, sunny perspective has grown out of the soil of suffering along with her strong will for hope and healing. In this episode, we talk about our relationships with grief, suicide, empathy, extreme emotions, trauma and anxiety. Sammie is an encouraging, genuine example of how an affirming perspective on life allows you to be refined by the fires you've been through rather than burned for good.

Meet Melissa McNerney (ig: @melisslovesthis )! She is an actor, producer, yogi and mindfulness practitioner! Throughout Melissa's healing journey and involvement with Al-Anon, she has learned to choose health and herself at all costs. That means participating in the daily, deep self-evaluation work that is required to gain insight and revitalization. Al-Anon is a 12-step program adapted from Alcoholics Anonymous for the family and friends of loved ones who are suffering from addiction. I think this episode is so informative and helpful for everyone - whether personally struggling with addiction or directly affected by it. There's nothing to be ashamed of, but there is a responsibility for how it affects you and others.

Meet Logan Taylor (ig: @intuitivelogan )! He is a creative director, photographer and an inspiring example of self love! In 2017, Logan directed me in a film he wrote called Until The End. We immediately connected over our relatability to the main character, Lila's,  story of struggle. Logan is also diagnosed Bipolar 2, like me. We also both understand what it's like to be from the south where conformity is more common than breaking the status quo. That's why Logan emphasizes the importance of seeking your own self approval above others and trusting that you are enough!

Meet Jonathan Gaurano (ig: @dogoodjonathan )! He is a creative director/storyteller for many companies and influencers as well one of the most positively radiant humans I know! It’s no surprise that Jonathan’s episode is the longest so far because he’s so engaging, exciting and full of wisdom. Whereas I deal with Bipolar 2, Jonathan is diagnosed with Bipolar 1. I’m amazed at his discipline in managing his mania in order to use it as fuel for his brilliant creativity! As he mentions, can’t wait for y’all to ride this roller coaster of a life discussion with us in his episode “You Are Beautiful”.
