Episode 028: What can we learn from Simone Biles? (A conversation about mental health)

On this episode, Sabrina and I take another dive into the mental health conversation as Simone Biles recently brought it to the forefront again. 

1 in 5, or 20% of American adults suffer from a diagnosable mental illness. 

Every day, 123 Americans die by suicide and there is one death by suicide every 12 minutes. 

If you want to go back and listen to Sabrina share her story of walking through severe anxiety and depression, you can go back to Episode 004 and part 3 of the “I don’t want to go back to normal” series. 

We looked at three things we can learn from what Simone Biles did: 

1. You have to be real!

2. You have to take the risk! 

3. You have to resolve to do whatever it takes!
