S01.E15: You Are Not Alone

If you are someone who has struggled with their mental health and has used unhealthy coping skills to manage the way that you feel then we want you to know that you are not alone and that this episode is especially for you. 

In this episode you will learn that having dark thoughts is super normal. You'll also learn that sharing your own mental health journey can help you break the stigma in your mind and in your community. And lastly, how over controlled perfectionistic tendencies can cause you to feel more stressed. 

In this episode, I sit down with After Orange Slices podcast, Bridget Case. She gets real about her teenage years when she lacked the proper coping skills she need and developed a binge eating disorder and she also shares her story to recovery. She even tells us about the night she spent in jail and how it gave her an unexpected amount of confidence. 

Bridget and I had so much fun we had to break it down into two episodes, but they're both still ridiculously long (sorry about that guys). If you haven't listened to part 1 yet, don't forget to go back and check it out. It's all about her childhood experiences and friends and how they have had an affected her growing up.
