Have you ever felt like a fraud, even when you're achieving success? On this episode of the Fuzzy Mic Podcast, we dive into my personal battle with imposter syndrome and its toll on my mental health. I recount my 2019 adventure attempting to run 304 miles on Alaska's Dalton Highway, a journey where self-doubt loomed large despite my accomplishments. This reflection is set against the backdrop of recent high-profile suicides, including the tragic stories of Stan Van Gundy's wife and professional golfer Grayson Murray, underscoring the hidden and pervasive nature of mental illness. Join me as I shed light on the importance of acknowledging and addressing these challenges.
We also tackle the disturbing rise in anxiety and PTSD among college students, with suicide alarmingly ranking as their second leading cause of death. From the impact of social media and employment stress to the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, we explore a range of contributing factors. Additionally, we discuss high suicide rates among military veterans, healthcare workers, and individuals with chronic pain or neurodevelopmental disorders.
Thank you for being part of this journey.
