Perspectives: Sarah JS

Sarah and I were lucky to meet through a project we did together and from the first meet, I knew I wanted her on perspectives and I cannot even describe how excited I was when she said yes! Sarah is the executive director of the incredible organization, Good Grief Network and also all round wonderful human being. In this discussion we delve in Sarah's journey with mental health, why it's so important to her to speak up and share stories. We have a very candid conversation on the masks we live our lives with and why being vulnerable is so important to both of us. Another beautiful topic we dived into was community and it was incredible to hear Sarah's interpretation of community and how she believes it is one of the biggest coping tools we all have and I couldn't agree more. Sarah shares her experiences with therapy and how mental health is so much more than just the voices in our heads. I am constantly in awe of her kindness, passion and dedication. I haven't met anyone like Sarah and how she articulates her words are beyond comparison, so much authenticity! I absolutely adore this individual and I am so lucky to call her my friend. Every chat with Sarah, I have personally left with the most beautiful energy and I truly believe you will feel it too after this listening to this! Make sure you check out the incredible work of Good Grief Network and if you haven't seen it already, take some time out to watch the incredibly important discussion we had on the intersection of Mental Health and Climate Change with Imperfect Eco-Hero and Start the Wave!
