I think there's just so much in this life that we're not taught about and we're just expected to know, and it's not until you're like in your mid-20s or 30s and you start realizing like, 'Oh, I don't know anything.'

In this episode of 'Mental Illness Happy Hour', Emma takes the spotlight to share her raw and heartfelt story.
