I think what it's going to take to fix the system is a new system.
Ever felt like opening up about your struggles might make a difference? In this episode of the Stigma Podcast, host Stephen Hays sits down with Jordan Brown, a mental health advocate and social worker, to discuss the transformative power of vulnerability. Jordan's journey into the mental health field wasn't straightforward. He found his calling through personal connections and experiences that many of us can relate to.
His dedication to the cause is evident in his work with AnswersNow, a platform providing parents of children with autism access to board-certified clinicians for day-to-day guidance. Jordan's insights don't stop there. He has written extensively on mental health topics, sharing his knowledge through articles and a heartfelt newsletter. During the conversation, Jordan sheds light on the broken mental health system and the urgent need for change.
He emphasizes the importance of sharing stories to reduce stigma and highlights how community and connection play crucial roles in recovery. One particularly poignant part of the discussion revolves around the impact of sleep deprivation on mental health. Jordan's candidness about his own battles with lack of sleep offers a raw look at how such struggles can affect one's well-being.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in mental health, whether you're seeking support for yourself or a loved one. It's about finding strength in vulnerability and understanding that sharing our stories can pave the way for healing.
