Full Transcript

If we wanted to help people's mental health, we would teach them not to be scared of their feelings. It's okay to feel depressed. It's okay to feel angry if somebody wronged you. Most of my adult life has been unlearning the things that I think I heard in traditional media and on the news. Yes, there's [music] days I don't want to come into the office and record content for 6 hours or 7 hours or whatever it may be and then also do an event and speak there, [music] but I'm not going to say, "Oh, you know what? I need a self-care day to take a bubble bath." because a lot of times I think people confuse self-care [music] with avoidance and avoidance makes the problem worse. We have just turned avoidance [music] into something that is normal and okay and I just am so against that because it does not help anybody's mental health.
