Life can be messy, and finding balance in an achievement-driven society is no small feat. In this episode of the Red Roof Recovery Show, Tanya McIntyre dives into the complex interplay between mental health, societal expectations, and personal worth. She shares her own journey of recovery from mental health disorders and addictions, highlighting the tools and techniques that have helped her along the way.
