Manage episode 419987214 series 2813470
The journey of healing is a personal odyssey, unique and transformative for every individual who embarks upon it.
For Jen Ginty, her odyssey led her to create "My Moody Monster," a pull apart plush toy designed to assist children and adults alike in managing their complex emotional landscapes. The podcast episode featuring Jen's story offers a profound look into the heart of emotional wellness, a subject that resonates with countless individuals navigating their own challenges with mental health.
Jen is a single mom and entrepreneur who lives with Complex PTSD and Major Depressive Disorder from childhood trauma. Throughout her life, Jen has learned valuable coping skills and has made it her mission to help others to better understand their own emotions.
Jen has faced obstacles in her healing journey - from becoming a mother without a healthy parental model of her own to overcoming her inner saboteur while coping with the symptoms of CPTSD and Depression. She has spent the last 4 years developing My Moody Monster - a pull apart plush toy that has helped children to get out their frustrations in a safe way and giving families a tool to talk about emotions and communication.
Jen believes by sharing her own story she can help others to know they are not alone. Her YouTube channel features her Moody Talks focusing on an emotion each month and teaching coping skills that have helped her with her own mental health.
