1N5 of Us: Changing the Mental Health Landscape

Conversations with Cam Host Talks Body Positivity + Mental Health

Erin Horn Episode 34

Today, we sat down with Camryn Mort, host of the Conversations with Cam podcast and mental health blogger. Camryn started learning about the mental health industry when her sister, Lindsey, was diagnosed with major depressive disorder. Sophomore year of college, Camryn started having severe anxiety, which led to panic attacks. After going to therapy for 6 months, she decided to start her own blog to normalize talking about mental health and to make people feel less alone in their journeys as well. We talk with Camryn about her mental health journey, body positivity, what led her to talk freely about mental health, and how she started her podcast. We hope you enjoy!
