About this episode

In this very special episode, Shereen interviews Anna for an intimate look at her experience with mental health and the often destructive ways she coped with it in her past. We talk very openly about her drug abuse and multiple turning points in her life that served as a wake-up call, telling her to take back control of her life. Normalizing the conversation about mental health is so important and Anna's story is one we're very grateful to share with you. Hope it helps. <3
