You are unbelievably strong and...

Mikhaila Peterson was the first person that truly made me question my own eating habits and how this could be contributing to depression. I was obviously shocked when I learned about the carnivore diet and how what we eat can truly be a primary cause of mental illness.

We're locking the wrong ones up! The insane people aren't the ones talking to themselves on the streets. Insanity is far more removed from reality than that. Welcome to the insanity series, part one. Remember, I'm not judging the person, I'm judging the decision. Let's have some fun, eh!

We didn't evolve as a species to feel happiness. All your self help gurus are lying to you (while making bank!) We are built to survive, this is the meaning of life. If you want to be happy though, you have to do the work. As for me and those prone to depression or anxiety, I have to and had to do a lot of work and it was all worth it.     As mentioned in this episode, if you're ready to do the wo...

Before starting Depression to Expression, I worked for a few large social media companies as I mentioned in this episode. I would argue, as many experts would, that social media is one of the main causes of the increase in depression, anxiety, self harm and eating disorders worldwide. From a personal note, I'm taking a break until March from social media but will most likely continue to stay away...

Here is a refreshing and simple perspective on how to stop overthinking this whole l...

There are times where we need gentleness and reassurance, rather than raw motivation. Just remember my friends, it's a feeling. Feelings evolve and change as its a simple law of being human. When the world seems heavy and against you, the last thing you need is to feel shame and guilt. You did nothing wrong and it's okay to feel what you feel right now. Let it come, let it pass. You're going to be...
