In a revealing role reversal, Jen Weis hosts a powerful discussion on my journey through mental health struggles, offering insights and inspiration for anyone facing darkness.

Hey friend! 👋

I recently had an eye-opening chat with my good friend Jen Weis, founder of Mission Save A Life.

In this candid convo, we dive into my personal mental health struggles over the past few years.

I share vulnerably about my journey from feeling isolated and suicidal to finding hope, purpose and community.

You'll discover:

- When I first became aware of my declining mental health

- The wake-up call that made me realize I needed help

- Why I didn't reach out to friends and family during my darkest moments

- The unlikely people who ended up being a lifeline for me

- My advice to anyone out there who feels alone and hopeless right now

Mental health challenges can make us feel isolated and misunderstood.

But there is always hope, and you don't have to walk this road alone. If my story resonates with you in any way, I encourage you to check out Mission Save A Life.

They're building an incredible judgment-free community focused on mental health awareness and suicide prevention.

Wishing you light along your journey, my friend. You've got this! 💪
