I don’t share my story often. It usually makes listeners cry and I find myself comforting others about my trauma.
I have found it can be quite painful to continually shove down emotions for the sake of others.
I also know that my younger self would have loved to know where the life rafts were in the community growing up.

In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, we've reached out to people in our community to create "portraits" of them, learn more about their stories, and to show you that you are not alone in your mental health journey. 💚

Who better to be our first portrait than Josie Heck, owner of Yoga Off the Square, and the speaker for tonight's mental health workshop on Breathwork and Visualization at KayBee Community Cafe! 💗 We love how one of the ways Josie likes to take care of her mental health is through helping others!
