Sharing your story helps yourself and others.And not to mention that sharing your story on social media or in real life can be a form of therapeutic healing.I recently experienced this when I shared part of my life story on my social media (Instagram). I knew that sharing my story would feel scary, and it sure did, but I also know that we heal and help others heal when we share our stories. How does sharing your story help others?When you share your mental and emotional health stories with others, you help them see themselves in you. And one of the powerful ways we can help others is by allowing them to know that they are not alone. And that as you did, they can as well heal.But, sharing your life story can also be therapeutic for you. You're practicing courage and vulnerability, and others will root for you and validate you. In this episode, we share our experience with sharing our stories, while also giving you the encouragement you need to share yours with others.And you'll also hear a challenge towards the end that helps you get started.Support the show
