The world I believe in is one where embracing your light doesn't mean ignoring your dark self-pity, jealousy or fear. It takes conscious, consistent and creative effort to make a life worth living.

Kevin Breel, a 21-year-old comedian, writer, and mental health activist, joins Eric Zimmer on 'The One You Feed' to share his deeply personal journey with depression.
