There is No Health Without Mental Health

Overview:

Meet the amazing and lovely Becky Endicott: Co-Founder and Chief Storyteller of the popular podcast and community, We Are For Good. During this conversation, I ask Becky to give us a glimpse of who little Becky was growing up. She tells us how she got to taste the nonprofit world early on in her career and immediately fell in love with service. We learn why she ultimately pivoted her career into serving as many nonprofits as she can with We Are For Good and we also talk about her own mental health journey that put her life into perspective. This conversation will leave you thinking about privilege, and what many of us take for granted when caring for ourselves mentally, physically, and emotionally… because it certainly is not the same in all parts of the world.
