And what emerged from it was a desire to understand the fact that I was both light and dark and that perhaps my light and dark qualities were not so far apart from each other but were instead part of the same foundation of wholeness.
Ever wondered how entrepreneurs can maintain their mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being? In this episode of the Stigma Podcast, Stephen Hays chats with Jessica Carson, the Director of Innovation at the American Psychological Association and the author of 'Wired This Way'. Jessica dives into her own journey and explains how she was drawn to the mental health space through her personal experiences. She believes that understanding both our light and dark sides is key to achieving wholeness.
Jessica shares her unique perspectives on self-understanding, self-complexity, and the importance of acceptance.
