We are kicking off Mental Health Awareness Month!
Today I am joined by Stephanie Donegan. Stephanie joined me for a breathwork session a couple weeks ago and I don’t think it was a coincidence! Stephanie and I have connected before, but this time there was what I like to call “sparks” and lots of good energy between us and what we believe in. That’s when I knew you needed to hear from her.
Stephanie shares her story and several tips that have helped her along this journey of healing.
**In the recording we mentioned a few items we were going to share, but some of it has not been available. If you are wanting access to Stephanie’s “survival sheet”, you can reach out and I will help get you information on that.
Also, Stephanie has started a women’s group for mental health and community, you can join that group here: Mental Health Club for Women
Finally, Stephanie mentioned an amazing new product that she is using to help with not only her mental health, but her physical health! I am going to be using the product as a trial and will send you the information soon! The name of the Elixir is Bella Grace.
Remember to wear GREEN on May 16th to show your support for Mental Health Awareness!
