About this episode

Today is World Mental Health Day, and author and artist Anna Marie Tendler comes on the show to talk about her buzzy, New York Times bestselling memoir Men Have Called Her Crazy. In her book she recounts her experiences being hospitalized at a mental health facility, her journey to understanding herself in the wake of several failed relationships over the course of her life, and the power of self-acceptance. Anna’s precise, brave account is an invitation to women to break patterns, practice better mental health, and commit to the hard work of rewriting a bold future for yourself.
