On this episode of YANA LV, Brannagh and Diya sit down with Amanda Grieme, the author of seven books highlighting bipolar disorder and other mental illness. They talk about the value of writing and the ability to physically watch stresses leave your body by doing so.
Amanda also dives into the necessity for empathy in the world, the idea that everyone is dealing with their own emotional struggles, and the beauty of hope.
