S2: EP13 Holding Space for Hope with Genevieve Mora
This week we're hanging with Genevieve Mora, a mental health advocate who is GM and Co-founder of Voices of Hope and co-creator of Love your Kite. Gen is incredibly generous in sharing her story.
It's a story that's led to her using her lived experience, her truth and her voice to help others fight their way through, and out the other side, of mental illness.
She's one wise old soul, and has lived more life than most in her 26 years and she's living proof that we all have what it takes to survive whatever our universal crash and burns might be.
Gen remembers with vivid clarity the moment she stepped into anxiety, and how from there her anxiety then morphed into her experience with Anorexia.. There's so much gold held in the container of this conversation.
We also talked about.
How to support a loved one, or friend, whose going through mental health challenges
How do to hold hope for them, until they're healed enough to hold hope for themselves
The importance of having a toolbox to support wellbeing & what's in hers
Isolation, healing & getting back amongst life
Plans not going to plan, and that actually being part of the plan
Her excitement for the future
Challenges she's face as she's moved into her role of GM for Voices of Hope
Celebrating the small stuff
The power of stories & how you can help Voices of Hope
... and so much more. We hope you enjoy this conver as much as we did.
Big love Jax & Kim x
