Exploring Mental Health in Community with Sasha Raskin
Sasha Raskin is on the podcast this week! Sasha and I met through the magic of Facebook (mild sarcasm, but also, amazing). In this episode, we discuss: - How she started her community A Beautiful Mess, her mental health journey, her experience checking herself into a mental hospital, paradoxes in emotions, the impact of vulnerability, the difference between real vulnerability and oversharing in leadership, and “safe spaces”. Sasha Raskin is the Founder of A BEAUTIFUL MESS (ABM), a mental health organization that runs corporate talks and events to combat loneliness, depression and stigma. Before that, she was a Hollywood literary agent representing dozens of bestsellers across the globe and even briefly ran a tech company, all the while struggling with debilitating depression. She started ABM to be the resource she wished she had when she was struggling the most.
