In today's episode of the Recovery Daily Podcast, I explore that it’s okay to not be okay. Acknowledging and accepting our struggles can lead to significant positive impacts on our mental wellness.
I talk about how recognizing that we’re not okay can open the door to genuine self-awareness, allowing us to explore the underlying causes of our discomfort. Then by shifting our focus from "why" to "what" and "how," we can take steps towards growth.
