13 | Can Mental Wellness & Mental Illness Co-Exist? 4 Signs Someone is Experiencing Mental Wellness While Living With a Mental Illness

Living Table | A Safe Space To Talk About Mental Health & Wellness

Hi Friends and Welcome to Living Table! 🌊

I'm so glad you are here! 🫶
Do you realize how much beauty is inside you?
Right now in this moment no matter where you are or how you are feeling today, there is a wealth of wellness inside of you even if you don’t feel like it in this moment.

For years after being diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder, it felt like any semblance of mental wellness was out of reach for me. I was so focused on the illness and the clinical side of treatment that I hadn’t even stopped to consider that I could still experience wellness even while having an illness.

In today’s episode, I am sharing from my own lived experience of going from being very shutdown focused on an illness that I didn’t want, to uncovering more and more wellness as I began sharing what I was living with in community with others and began to experience a sense of thriving in my life that I never thought possible.
Curious about uncovering more mental wellness in your own life? Listen in.
Your presence matters here. <3
With you,

Amy
