Oh goodness gracious! I had the pleasure of talking with Erin for episode 6 and it was phenomenal. She blew me away with her kindness and radiating love—especially after everything she has gone through!

She grew up in New York and is still a proud New Yorker. Her story is heartbreaking and beautiful. Unfortunately, she has had to deal with a lot, including depression. I cannot say enough how important it is to get help if you are struggling with mental illness.

If you need medication to help you, then do it. There is a stigma around taking medication for mental health, and that negative stigma needs to stop. You wouldn’t tell a sick person to not take their antibiotics. You shouldn’t tell someone with a mental health issue (a very real sickness) to not take medicine.

Stepping off my soap box now. Erin is wonderful to listen to and her story is inspiring. I hope you love it as much as I do.
