EP.1 - Mental Health & Suicide

Amanda and Allen explore the impact the past few years have had on their mental health. They share their stories of severe illness, personal trauma, and family tragedies to normalize the impact life happening has on mental health, moods, and actions. Allen shares about the societal obstacles men face as they go through difficult phases of life and the importance of vulnerability, and Amanda shares her experiences with being taken seriously when she is struggling since people are used to her being "the strong person." Though mental health is a heavy topic, Amanda and Allen infuse the conversation with humorous experiences that illustrate the importance of acknowledging the good things in life while being honest about the bad.
