Show Notes

The holiday season is an appropriate time to step back from our usual focus on systems-level change and instead highlight how we as individuals can make things better for one another. As daunting as mental health and its related issues are, there is still plenty that each of us can do for the sake of our own wellness and that of others. John King is a certified peer specialist from Beaumont who believes that everyone can live a fulfilling and productive live, no matter their diagnosis. He joins us to talk about how individuals can promote mental health in their communities.
