What if the help you need is closer than you think—but hidden behind stigma, silence, or simply not knowing where to look?
In this vibrant and hope-filled episode, I sit down with Robert Kasprzak, Senior Manager of Community Engagement and Equity at the Mental Health & Recovery Services Board (MHRSB), for a conversation that's part education, part motivation—and all heart.
Robert shares what it really means to serve a community—from knocking down mental health stigmas to showing people where the lifelines actually are. We talk advocacy, outreach, and how to meet people right where they are with real resources that can change lives. Whether you're in a city with plenty of options or a small town with limited access, this episode reveals practical ways to find help, support others, and spark healing in your corner of the world.
🎧 In this episode, we unpack:
-
How to navigate mental health systems with clarity
-
The creative strategies being used to reach underserved communities
-
Why we still struggle to talk about mental health—and how to shift that
-
How YOU can become a trusted connector in your community
This isn't just a feel-good episode—it's a wake-up call and a resource map rolled into one. It's for anyone who's ever felt like they had to figure it out alone.
Lean in. Take notes. And let's get free—together.
