This week on the podcast we chat with Kenz from @wellwithkenzz . Kenz is studying in Wellington and has her own wellness platform sharing her story and facilitating open conversations and thoughts around mental health. Having her own podcast @smalljoyspodcastshe knows the importance of sharing stories to make others feel less alone. Kenz explains her journey navigating high school and University battling with mental health issues. She highlights the importance of everyone having their own individual journey to recovering, whether that be through medication or therapy, and that it’s okay for things to not help at first. With messages for everyone including the normalisation of therapists for anyone, prioritising yourself and how you can help others to reach out for help.
Her favourite quote is, “Remember, nobody’s feelings are more important than your own so take time to love yourself”. This quote really nicely represents the importance that it is not selfish to prioritise yourself and your needs, especially on the road to recovery.
