Description

My guest this week is author, blogger, and recovering depressive, Cathy Jean-Francois. 

In our discussion, Cathy and I dive into what it is like to live with diagnosed depression while sharing our separate experiences. Cathy refers to her depression as "the intruder". We will hear how this unwanted invader has loomed large over much of Cathy's life since childhood, and what she does now to better identify and cope with it. 

Cathy is a frequent contributor to her own blog series called "Cathy's Cross: A Depressive's Positive Perspective", where she opens-up about not only her life living with chronic depression, but also her relationships with friends, family, and career. 

What you will hear about in this podcast:

• The crippling impacts of depression
• Childhood trauma
• How a depressive's mind works
• Depression in black women/people
• A father's enduring positive influence 
• How physical fitness works alongside emotional fitness
• How transparency and creative outlets offer catharsis 

This was one of my more favorite interviews. Listen. Learn. Enjoy.
