Pieces To Wellness
I believe mental health is a spectrum, one end is wellness and on the other end is illness. These conversations we have will offer up tips and tools to not only bring you closer to the wellness side, but also help keep you there. TPP. (Author & formerly of Above Ground Podcast) has put together a new mental health podcast that is chock full of lived experiences, wellness tips & practical tools to provide you with some pieces… but it is up to you to put them together. Reach that level of wellness that you have been working towards with the help from co- host & yogi, Karen. Take out that tool box and let’s share tools together! Remember , the road to a better you is paved with Pieces To Wellness

Mental Illness Is My Superpower: A Conversation With Taylor
You've probably heard the saying, "What doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger." And while we don't wish tragedy on anyone, it is also true that sometimes we don't know what kind of strength we possess until we are faced with adversity. Real super heroes are known by their scars, not by accolades.
This week we welcome Pieces to Wellness friend, Taylor Locke. Costume or no costume, Taylor is a true mental health superhero. Taylor wears many hats in the local, state, national, and even international mental health advocacy community. The challenges that Taylor has overcome, the resilience and humility they display, is nothing short of extraordinary.
Much of Taylor's work in mental health has been connected to NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness). Taylor has been involved with fundraising, community events, working with the Next Gen community (young adult advisory group), and sitting on the Board of Directors for NAMI Capital Region NY. Most recently, Taylor is the superhero face of NAMI Capital Region NY Captain NAMI, literally embodying a superhero persona, costume and all, to break down stigma and connect with kids on mental health. All of this work is personal to Taylor. They remind us that perspective matters, change is constant, and relentlessness leads to resilience.
