This week on Backyards and Bevvies Podcast PK interviews our neighbor Kiersen. They have an awesome talk about what it's like to be a social worker, therapist and all around happy/healthy person.
Kiersen starts the show with a great bevvy from Eastern Asia. This is a great moment in the B&B world because one of the main points of the show is to introduce our listeners to new drinks, experiences, and ways of thinking. Kiersen is from Pennsylvania originally but lives down in Nashville with her fiance, who PK has toured with and is the reason why our paths have crossed. They dive into some fun tales from our pasts but then jump into her life in counseling and helping with mental health. There is a good discussion on how to start the process of getting your head in the right spot. How food can help bring your mood up in times when life can get very heavy. Healthy living is not just something that takes one day, it is a long process of growing and changing bad habits. Kiersen relives a memory of the one time she got to ride a tour bus with her future hubby to a festival and then they dive into what a quick day in a roadie's life of food in the morning.
One question PK asks is how do you wake up each day and try to help people when you know their situation is down? How do you stay positive in a world that is completely upside down at times? Kiersen talks about her goals in helping people and how she goes about her day and her job. PK wonders why we don’t learn more key life skills while in school instead of memorizing things that we don’t end up actually using in everyday life?
Mental Health MATTERS.
