Mental Illness Awareness
Show Notes

October 3rd launches Mental Illness Awareness Week.  Mental illness impacts 1 in 5 adults. With a disease that is so common, it amazes us that it is still a taboo topic. We are teaming up with NAMI Northern Illinois to open the door on this topic.  Our guests, Xavier & Melissa, share their stories and offer tips to listeners.

*Please note that this is a sensitive topic and may not be suitable for all people. We do discuss suicide in this episode.
