Living through a global pandemic has been difficult for many of us over the past two years. And experts have recognized the challenges isolation and lock downs have had on our ability to cope and thrive. The Canadian Mental Health Association is about to mark Mental Health Week. The event has been held during the first week in May for more than seven decades. This year, they are holding a week long series of online conversations called Empathy in Action. And among the nine mental health advocates who are scheduled to speak is Sam Madore. She is the host of the podcast "Let Me Overthink About It". In this conversation, she shares how the loss of her mother affected her. And also, the impact we can all have when we open up and are honest about our own struggles and challenges.
