"Mental illness can affect anybody; we need to look at it with compassion and care the way we would any other illness; the people who are suffering deserve to be listened to, to be understood, to be treated with compassionate care."
This week I have a remarkable guest joining me, author and blogger, Melanie Gibson.
Get ready for an engaging and insightful conversation as we delve into Melanie's incredible journey of transformation, captured in her book titled "Kicking and Screaming: A Memoir of Madness and Martial Arts."
Melanie's story is not just about martial arts, but about finding inner peace, community, and a newfound sense of confidence. From her struggle with mental illness and substance abuse to her journey towards healing and self-discovery, Melanie's experiences will touch your heart and inspire you to overcome any obstacles you may face.
