Former Member of Ontario Parliament Talks about Mental Health, Including Her Own

from The Inner Shift Podcast · host Kimothy Walker / Amy Friesen

MPP Lisa Macleod did the “unthinkable”. She talked about being a member of provincial (Ontario) parliament while having a mental health challenge.Diagnosed with bi-polar disorder, we’re going to talk today about how we SAY we support mental health – but do we really?? We need to do way more than “Let’s Talk”....let’s DO…Since leaving government, Lisa has travelled with something she’s going to talk about here…women and travel…which resonates with Kimothy strongly, as she travels full-time, for her own mental health.Lisa has been vocal and proud but dealt with a lot of sh+t because we TALK about mental health, but we sure don’t do a great job of supporting people who break. She’s been called many names….we like “champion”. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
