Summary

Sex educator and social media darling Eileen Kelly was on top of the world, running the successful blog KILLER AND A SWEET THANG, when she decided to step away from it all. After struggling with her mental health, Eileen entered treatment at the most infamous mental hospital in the US. Five months and some serious “self-discovery” later, Eileen was discharged and created GOING MENTAL, a podcast dedicated to destigmatizing the mental journeys we are all on. Eileen interviews some of today’s most compelling media figures, influencers, celebrities, and mental health experts on topics ranging from body image to addiction, the prison industrial complex, the fashion industry, and everything in between. New episodes every Thursday.

Produced by Dear Media.
