Brittany Richmond & Dennis Gillan: The Post-Election Stress Hacks YOU Need to Know

On episode 520 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we have for you a great program called "Healing Together: Navigating Post-Election Stress and Uplifting Our Students" with mental health expert Brittany Richmond and the Executive Director of Half a Sorrow Foundation, Dennis Gillan. We'll discuss how we can manage our personal and professional stress, uplift students in a divisive climate, build campus resilience, implement effective self-care, as well as long-term mental health planning and resources. Brittany Richmond is a dynamic and charismatic mental health expert with over a decade of experience. Diagnosed with multiple anxiety disorders, including an impulse control disorder, right after high school, she was inspired to enter the fields of counseling and psychology. Brittany has since dedicated herself to ending the stigma surrounding mental health and reaching out to as many struggling young people as possible with her story and voice. Dennis Gillan is a national thought leader on the topic of suicide prevention and mental health advocacy. Unfortunately, he has been deeply touched by suicide after the loss of both of his brothers to suicide, eleven years apart. He has worked on the suicide prevention hotline, he is an author, he is a TEDx speaker, but his real calling is helping to improve mental health by promoting real conversations. Dennis is the executive director of a non-profit called the Half a Sorrow Foundation.
