This week I talk about what happens when things are going really well. I like to call it “anti-depression” because depression feels like a downward spiral and this surge of creativity is an upward spiral. I talk about what I do to help maintain that momentum with small little loops of happiness and joy.
Join me for Mental Mondays! I’ll be posting mental health talks Mondays at 4:15 – just in time for you to “unwind” by 4:20. Mostly bi-weekly, sometimes weekly. Subscribe and hit the notification bell to stay in the loop!

Follow along on my mental health journey as I talk openly about a variety of topics that affect my mental health. These topics vary wildly from minor annoyances to major life changing events, but no matter the size of the issue, it’s important to recognize and understand it.
Remember, if you are struggling with your mental health, seeking help is always the best first step. Talk to someone. Anyone. And remember, many therapists offer a sliding scale to accommodate those in need.

As a mental health advocate, I have been speaking at conferences and growing Brainbuzz - my mental health brand and Youtube channel. I share my experiences with anxiety and depression in the field of UX and how they relate to the experiences we craft. I am available and actively seeking more speaking engagements.
