About this listen

Emily is the true definition of struggle to success. Facing family hardships at a young ago that led to many mental and emotional struggles- Emily was able to use her personal journey of supporting those with addictions, disease and mental struggle to now educate others through her non-profit organization Mental Makeover. Jessie Elly & Em talk about everything from resilience, avoidance, business, starting a non-profit and the lack of mental health education for so many who struggle in silence. Community and connection are 2 key factors in understanding we are not alone and Emily continues to show others why speaking out is so important. Sparking from a high school friend’s loss of life to suicide- Emily and Co-President Christian were able to tap into a much needed conversation and need. Now with over 5 team members, board, ambassador program, merch line and education programming boxes- Mental Makeover hosts annual events like the Why The Needs You Here Walk and The Freezing For a Reason Polar Plunge to continue to break the stigma and raise awareness. Tune in for an open conversation of truth, mental health, business and life advice for those with struggling minds. Tap in!
