Justin Kruger founder of Project Helping and KYND KITS talks about how his struggle with mental illness helped him be passionate about serving. Justin hospitalized himself twice without a soul knowing. He even won the sales rep of the year at his former business the same year he went into the hospital and no one knew.
We talk about the stigmas of mental illness, why it is so hard to talk about it, and how some silently struggle for years.
After years of struggling silently Justin went on a service opportunity with his then new girlfriend, only because he didn’t want to look like a jerk for not going. After he experienced serving others - his whole world changed. It led him to lead a life of service and use that passion to help heal others with the same struggles he had.
This is a beautiful story of the silent struggles many of us face and how one man came through the other side and is helping others along the way.
