I think your insight was great and well-meaning, but as a person who also doesn't enjoy the act of sex and has not experienced sexual trauma beyond the typical doing it, because I felt like I was supposed to not because I actually enjoyed it, I just sometimes wish more space was made for folks to feel okay, expressing that they just don't like sex and that's not something that requires healing or fixing.
Heartbreak is never easy, but what if you could turn that pain into something that helps others? Elle Huerta did just that. In this episode of 'Mental Illness Happy Hour', host Paul Gilmartin chats with Elle about her journey through heartbreak and how it led her to create the Mend app, a tool designed to help people mend their broken hearts. Elle shares candidly about her struggles with obsession and letting go, especially after breakups or losses.
She dives into the importance of online communities in dealing with feelings of shame, isolation, and rejection. Elle also touches on the dangers of working to the point of exhaustion and seeking validation through accomplishments. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by heartbreak or wondered how to find healing, this conversation offers a blend of personal stories and practical advice. Elle's journey from pain to purpose is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit.
