Monday Feb 06, 2023
Monday Feb 06, 2023
It's Mental Health Chat Monday, the new and improved version. On this series, we sit down with a brand new guest every week to discuss their personal journey with mental health and wellness. I'm your host, DDare Bionic, a mental wellness advocate and survivor. In today’s debut episode I’m walking you through the life of our first guest, ME! This episode serves as an introduction to your host with the most! Tune in every Monday to see who is taking up the guest chair and to see how their story might help you heal.

WELCOME!
Mental Health Chat Monday was born from the need to de-stigmatize mental illness and all things that go with the journey to mental wellness. As a survivor, I feel it is my duty to encourage others and share these incredibly important stories so that those suffering silently understand that they are not alone. I hope that if you are tuned in, you are getting the help that you need and if not; that this podcast will encourage to do so.
With Love,
DDare Bionic
