About the Podcast
Hi, and welcome back to the Mental Health Raw and Open Podcast. I am your host Jody. I started this podcast many years back but took a break for a few years to work on myself. I am back now to provide a platform for others to share their stories with mental health. Join us as we delve into everything mental health. If you wish to share and be a guest, please message me and we will make it happen. I want to give a shout out to my producer, friend, and editor Dorian Kent, who is making this process smooth and easy. I am excited to get this up and running again, and looking forward to chatting with guests, and hearing from listeners.
