| How I Got Real With Myself - Jamila Ford | 10 Feb 2020 | 01:07:40 | |
I was a guest on the It's All Mental podcast with the lovely Pamela Smith. We chatted about performers and mental health, self sabotaging behavior, and the value of having a good support system. Since I don’t talk about myself a ton on my podcast, I thought this might something you want to here and perhaps useful for those of you who’ve had the same struggles. Thanks to Pamela for having me on!
