Hello, my beautiful people.  I am delighted and honored to have Brittany Remington as my guest today. Brittany and I met at the Women in Leadership Series event, and we instantly connected. With May being Mental Health Awareness Month, Brittany offered to share her knowledge and experiences to help raise awareness.

Brittany Remington works for New Directions Mental Health as the Interventional Psychiatry Resource Manager. She explains the various treatments available for those with treatment-resistant depression, including Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and Spravato, an S-ketamine nasal spray. These treatments stimulate the brain to alleviate depressive symptoms and are best used alongside therapy.

We discuss the importance of finding what works for you in managing mental health, whether it's therapy, medication, support groups, or lifestyle changes. Brittany emphasizes the need for consistency in treatment and the role of a supportive community. She shares her own journey, highlighting the significance of surrounding yourself with positive, growth-minded individuals.

Brittany shares her passion for helping others and her side venture, The Wow Booth Co., a photo booth business that brings joy and connection to people at events.

For anyone struggling with mental health, Brittany recommends reaching out to the 988 crisis hotline for immediate support. She also encourages people to explore local resources and support groups available in their communities.

This episode is filled with valuable insights and practical advice for anyone looking to improve their mental health and well-being. Join us for an inspiring conversation with Brittany Remington and learn how to take control of your mental health journey.
