Mary Smith was such an incredible guest. She opened up with a vulnerable story about a past relationship, and overall really engaged with me as a host. This led to a really fulfilling conversation. One thing I took away from Mary was how undealt-with trauma can snowball in a person’s life, whether in the way it manifests in themselves, their interactions with others, or also across generations. It was also fascinating how people sharing their trauma helps facilitate conversation and help people not feel as alone, while stories of overcoming mental health challenges could also potentially give others hope. Mary’s passion for mental health has helped her overcome blockers in her career and help others as a therapist. She’s pursued her path with such forethought. Mary is an incredible person and I’ve always enjoyed learning from her.
