Valéry Brosseau, is a social worker, poet, advocate and the CEO of Validate Mental Health.
She lives with BOTH bipolar 2 and borderline personality disorder and we discuss what that means, how the present differently and what has helped her manage the symptoms of both.
We also discuss the need for systemic change in mental health care (all of society really) and how giving back with our lived experience can help so many others and ourselves!
You can find Valéry on Instagram @validatementalhealth and @valerybrosseau or at https://www.validatementalhealth.com/
