| 0:00.0 | Awareness Month. And as somebody who's built an online fitness business that has coached over |
| 0:05.4 | 25,000 clients in the last 10 years, built a social media following of over 3 million across |
| 0:13.1 | all platforms. And I just turned 30 years old. I figured I would give you what I do for my mental |
| 0:20.4 | health to protect and improve it. |
| 0:22.8 | Some of the things that I struggle with with my mental health and what you can take from |
| 0:29.3 | this video today to hopefully immediately improve your mental health. And I think this episode |
| 0:34.7 | will be at the very least interesting because I see an approach mental health different than maybe what some other gurus on the internet may tell you. |
| 0:47.8 | Not that it's better or worse, it'll just be different. |
| 0:51.6 | I'm not going to be talking about taking a bubble bath or I'm not going to be talking about meditation. And not that these things are bad. That's just not how I approach what mental health means to me.
