This Is My Brave now has a monthly Book Club!
With the abundance of incredible books on the topic of mental illness and mental health, we wanted to celebrate some of our favorite reads with our This Is My Brave family.
“Reading was one way I found stories from individuals dealing with the exact same thing I was facing and reading their stories helped me to better understand my condition,” Jennifer Marshall shared. “Memoirs written by individuals living with bipolar disorder, like Kay Jamison’s An Unquiet Mind, taught me that it was possible to lead a fulfilling life despite this life-long diagnosis.”
Each month, This Is My Brave will select a book as the monthly pick, and it will be announced in our e-newsletter at the start of the month. If you’re not already subscribed, now is a great time to sign up to stay in the loop on what we’re reading![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column column_width_percent=”80″ position_vertical=”middle” align_horizontal=”align_center” overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”3″ medium_width=”0″ mobile_width=”0″ shift_x=”0″ shift_y=”0″ shift_y_down=”0″ z_index=”0″ width=”1/1″][vc_button button_color=”accent” border_width=”0″ link=”url:http%3A%2F%2Feepurl.com%2Fc6VPir||target:%20_blank|”]Join our e-newsletter[/vc_button][vc_column_text]For May, we’ve been reading Everything is Going to Be OK: A Real Talk Guide for Living Well with Mental Illness by Ashley Womble.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]This book is a real-world guide to help you navigate life with mental illness.
