I'm Maura Aronsmeli and this is The Anxious Achiever.

We look at stories from business leaders who have dealt with anxiety, depression, or other mental health challenges,

how they fell down, how they pick themselves up and how they hope workplaces can change in the future. Even as we're in the midst of a possible transition back to the office in the U.S.,

it's no question that remote work and work that breaks any traditional mold of an office-based 9-5 is here to stay.

In many ways, the pandemic just accelerated what was already happening.

I've been thinking a lot lately about how we consume media in our working lives and the people behind the screens.

Later on, we'll hear from Jackson, Jayanaegam, a general manager and VP at Clorox,

who's been thinking a lot about how to help employees manage their mental health at a time like

this. But first, I was so excited to talk with someone who I actually learned about through my kids.

One of my sons, both my sons, love to watch streaming gamers, suggested that I do an episode

of the show with an influencer, a professional streamer. I'm thrilled to talk with Jessica, better known as

She Snaps. She's a gamer, a professional gamer who's gained a huge following on Twitch, YouTube,

Instagram, and more. And she uses her platform to talk about a lot more than gaming, including

mental health. She has a fantastic, very quick acronym that I think is super helpful.

It's called Shades.

When it comes to some kind of basics in terms of checking in with yourself and seeing if

you're burning out because you're maybe not taking great care of yourself,

my community has an acronym for that, which is just Shades.

Sleep, hydration, air, diet, exercise, and stillness.

It was great to sit down with SheeSnapps to talk about her work,

her passionate community, and her mission for better mental health among her followers.

For those people listening who may not understand necessarily what a streamer is or how a streamer makes a living, could you tell us a little bit about your day job?
