Dr. Kim Lannon discusses how important diversity is in your life. In this case, we are talking about your self-identity. Tieing your self-image and self-worth to a single aspect of your life, your job, your role as a parent, spouse, or "bread-winner" can be akin to putting all your mental health eggs in one basket. Things change in our lives, at times in major ways, and diversity of interests and self-identify help us transition with much less stress. Dr. Lannon also talks about the vastly underrated role of sleep in our mental well-being.
