Today we are talking to Maggie who is in high school and on the genuine team. 

Maggie, like myself, has a strong desire to normalize mental health issues and the act of going to therapy. She has a desire for all to be able to talk about it more openly and comfortably. She takes us through her journey from how and when she realized she was struggling  to when she decided to go to therapy. We talk about the stigmas associated with mental health, how exercise and nutrition plays a role, and how social media plays a role. She and I talk about what we hope for our community moving forward. 

Maggie and I spoke for over an hour so today is part I and Wednesday we will share part II of our conversation. 

Brace yourselves for this high energy, very silly, and 100% real genuine talk.
