Women 40+ and Depression. We're Talking About It
Manage episode 427011949 series 3568821
12.3% of women aged 40–59 have the highest rate of depression of any group in the United States according to the CDC.
We're taking the shame out of our game! Mental health should be expressed, and #SecondActWomen licensed therapist Sarah Senst and former school principal Melanie Moreno, turned entrepreneur, talked to me about it.
1. Get the stats to know you're not alone
2. Hear from the three of us who've had our own mental health journeys
3. Get practical #mentalhealth tips from Sara, including the RIGHT way to journal. (Here's a Link to her podcast for more explanation on journaling: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/encore-living-your-best-second-act/id1619706734?i=1000625204771.) We're framing depression, giving tips, and dropping truth bombs from our own admissions.
