Episode #10 Mental Health & Shifting Perspectives with Tristan Paragas
This podcast episode contains sensitive content discussing trauma and mental health. We'll be addressing personal experiences and emotions that might be triggering to some individuals. While we intend to foster understanding and provide insights, we strongly encourage listeners who might be deeply affected by these topics to consider their emotional well-being before proceeding. If you need immediate support, please reach out to a mental health professional or a trusted person in your life.
When Tristan Paragas and I met for the first time after he reached out to me to be a part of the podcast, we both totally geeked out over our love of business Guru Gary Vaynerchuk as well as Dr. Gabor Mate and his work with trauma and the body. Tristan shared his incredible story with me and Matthew Hilkewich about immigrating to Canada at the age of 16 and why he was passionate about being a mental health advocate.
