Whatever you do in life make sure you show up, you dare to dream & that you actually take your true selves along with you for the ride.

I also address how i handled keeping positive and healthy during a mental breakdown and how i flipped the script and old teachings on this thing called positivity. To get myself from almost taking my own life to grabbing the reigns and taking charge of it !. I discuss things in this episode like positive self talk, mindfulness, meditation, routines, mindset, the comfort zone, anxiety, the list goes on !. In true Jenny style i do my best to blow up what we all know of positivity and a healthy mindset and instead ask you all to open your minds to new theories regarding keeping positive and healthy that have seem to help and have massive impacts on my life. I was textbook queen of positive and healthy for a decade after becoming disabled and guess where that inevitably lead me... self combusting and erupting in breakdown central. So in this episode i would like to invite you to leave all what you know and have learnt previously regarding keeping positive and healthy at the door while i expose the truths about keeping positive and healthy alongside a disability and illness and share with you all my journey and everything learnt to date.
