  • Summary

  • What if your deepest vulnerabilities could inspire others to embrace their own truths? In this heartfelt episode Janell opens up about the emotional journey of writing her book "Loving a Bipolar Bear." Through raw and candid reflections, she shares the poignant experiences of being a caregiver for both a parent and a spouse suffering from bipolar disorder. She discusses the deep-seated traumas, the resilience required to break family cycles, and the profound personal growth that emerged from these challenging relationships.

    This episode also explores the courage it takes to publish such a personal story, despite facing backlash from her own family. Yet, the letters of gratitude from readers who felt understood and motivated to share their own stories made every struggle worthwhile. From the taboo of mental illness within families to the strength needed to confront it openly, tune in for an empowering conversation about healing, overcoming adversity, and finding solace in the shared experiences of others.
