The High-Functioning Fog: The Mental Health Behind the Scenes of Success

Does external success imply that we have it all together? Or that we never have bad days?

I’m here to tell you that we can run successful meetings, have lunch with friends, and manage our households, all while feeling the subtle symptoms of anxiety or depression.

We are all human, and therefore we all experience a range of feelings and emotions. I’m hoping to further change the stigma surrounding mental health struggles.

In this episode, I’m talking about developing a more honest and healthy mindset about mental health, and what you can do to better nurture your own needs and challenges.

In Today’s Episode We Discuss:

Why there’s no such thing as a negative emotion
Tools and coping strategies to manage mental health
How to build a team that strengthens your weaknesses
Learning to embrace all of your experiences as a human being

Mental health is not a disqualifier of leadership. Take it from me, you can be a Leading Lady and still have hard days! I want you to know you are not broken, you are just a human being going through life!

I hope this episodes reminds you to take care of yourself and feel empowered to ask for support (even before you think you need it). I would love to hear from you about your own mental health journey or thoughts from this episode.
