I want to make mental health a priority this year. So what's the first step to improving your mental health? Finding and understanding your unique identity! In this podcast I will discuss why identity is the very first thing we need to focus on in order to improve our mental health, and how to begin discovering your unique identity.    I am making 2019 the year of mental health! Each month I will tackle a specific problem, issue, and concept related to mental ill health. I will be discussing major issues in the current mental health system AND how to find healing for yourself or a loved one. Starting this January we will be tackling the issue of identity in my PERFECT YOU book club! So how does this January book club work? 1. You will need to get my book THE PERFECT YOU (on sale now for $12.99- save 35%: https://store.drleaf.com/collections/frontpage/products/the-perfect-you) which is also available on Kindle and Audible. 2. I will be doing a YouTube Live once a week to answer questions and go over several key concepts: YOUTUBE LIVE SCHEDULE Week One (Jan 4th 10am CT): Chapter 1-3 Week Two (Jan 11th 10am CT): Chapter 4-5 Week Three (Jan 18th 10am CT): Chapter 6-7 Week Four (Jan 31st 10am CT): Chapter 8-10 Like all book clubs, if you read the assigned chapters before the YouTube live it will make each session even more meaningful so be sure to read the related chapters before each YouTube session!
