Hi Everyone,

I’ll be one of the hosts of this wonderful show on Saturday, November 15. You’ll hear three people share personal stories of living successfully with a mental health diagnosis. Many FGS tellers, including me, have been in this show since it began in 2017.

These stories are touching, poignant, and often even funny. I’m proud of all the FGS tellers who have walked on this stage and shared their stories. This is one of the ways storytelling can make a difference in the world. I hope some of you can join me at Seattle Town Hall on the 15th to support our friends at NAMI Washington.

Here is the info straight from NAMI:
