It's becoming normal to talk about it, and I think we're in the middle of a mental health and wellness revolution that looks a lot like what the 80s looked like in terms of physical fitness.
What if sharing your mental health story could help thousands of others? That's the vision behind KoreVoices, a thriving digital community founded by Jesse Stern. In this episode of the Stigma Podcast, Stephen Hays chats with Jesse about his journey from documentary filmmaking for National Geographic and Discovery Channel to creating a platform that connects over 200,000 people struggling with mental health issues. Jesse's work emphasizes the power of authenticity and vulnerability in fostering supportive online spaces.
They dive into how social media can be a double-edged sword for mental health, the nuances between in-person and digital support, and why KoreVoices is more than just a community—it's a movement. Whether you're seeking support or looking to understand the evolving landscape of mental health care, this conversation offers valuable insights and heartfelt stories that resonate deeply.
