Episode description
Let’s normalize feeling just “okay.” All of a sudden, we have an expectation that we need to be happy all of the time, and if we aren’t, we must be doing something wrong. In today’s episode, I get to reset expectations around mental health with a fellow licensed mental health counselor and host of the podcast “Okayish”, Mary Ellen Dance.
This episode dives into:
-
What self-care actually is and what it means.
-
The false expectation that we should be happy all of the time.
-
Managing negative or uncomfortable emotions.
-
The unhelpful influence of social media on our perception of what mental health truly is.
