With Julie Kraft and Ryan McCurdy
Ep. 178: The Bipolar Side of Me Part 2 with Julie Kraft on the indoubt Podcast

Powered by RedCircle

As a mental health advocate, Julie Kraft shares further about her personal journey surrounding mental health and joins us again as this week’s guest. Julie tells about what it meant for her to share her story publicly on social media. The stigma that surrounds bipolar disorder, and mental illness in general, forced her to keep her diagnosis in the shadows for so long, wondering what those around her would think and the judgement that would come with each person that she told. Julie encourages each of us to open up and let God use our story, even when it hurts because even when it doesn’t make sense, he still has control of our lives.
