Candid Reflections on Mental Health | Living With Bipolar Disorder with Shaley Hoogendoorn

I’m joined by Shaley Hoogendorn for an eye-opening episode that explores the world of bipolar disorder and mental health advocacy. Shaley, a teacher, writer, podcaster, and mental illness advocate with lived experience of bipolar II disorder, shares the importance of seeking help, the significance of accurate diagnosis and proper treatment, and the genetic nature of bipolar disorder. Together, we discuss the stigma surrounding bipolar disorder and the importance of compassion and empathy in supporting one another's mental well-being.
