We're shifting gears in episode four and getting more vulnerable with y'all as Olivia opens up about trauma from her past. In this talk, we hope to further break down the societal stigma that mental health struggles label us as "abnormal" or "defective." We bring up subliminal messages about body image and self worth we're all exposed to growing up and just how much starting therapy and medication has changed Olivia's life for the better.

"At the end of the day, if I can help anyone feel motivated enough to start investing in themselves, sharing my story is more than worth it." -xoxo, Olivia

Trigger warning there is some brief mention of topics involving self harm.
