Michelle Dickinson: 

Background Information in her own words:

"May is Mental Health Awareness Month. CDC says that 1 in 3 Americans are dealing with depression or anxiety due to COVID. The emotional impact of the pandemic is hitting many of us. The United Nations released a policy brief entitled COVID-19 and the Need for Action on Mental Health citing the deep toll the crisis has taken due to social isolation, losing a loved one, and the economic turmoil from lost income. Now, more than ever, we need to normalize the mental health conversation.

Return to work anxiety is very real for so many people also. Setting up your home for harmony is also a challenge for many. Invite me to share tips and strategies to help ease anxiety and how to create a home environment and structure that will best support your family.

I've experienced the "trifecta" of mental health.

  1. I grew up loving and caring for my bipolar mother.
  2. I helped build the largest mental health employee resource group at a fortune 50 company.
  3. I experienced depression due to a life event reminding me that nobody is immune to mental illness at any given point in their life.

My book Breaking Into My Life was written to help myself—along with the rest of us—better understand the world of mental illness. My story of perseverance and triumph helps challenge and transform the “suffer in silence” dynamic, and makes mental illness more understood, treated and accepted.

I am out to do my part to eliminate the stigma by normalizing the mental health conversation in workplaces and within the first responder community. I partner with innovative leaders to bring my programs and mental health strategies to help them cultivate cultures of compassion for those living with or caring for those with invisible disabilities. My Resilience webinar has made an impact with empowering hundreds of employees during COVID-19 quarantine.

Side notes: I do engage in ethical sex, consensual sex, and respectful sex in the name of revering sexual rights. For me, The CERTS model: (Consent, Equality, Respect, Trust, and Safety) is my life model for all areas of my life. I am an Intuitive empath, a physical empath, an emotional empath, an intellectual empath, a plant empath, a dream empath, an earth empath, an animal empath, a romantic empath, and a sexual empath. I am spiritually gifted as well as physically gifted. I'm also a well-balanced, well-rounded, well-adjusted, and well-unified personality. Extraordinary persons such as myself are sensibly characterized by our outside-of-the-box thinking, gray-area thoughtfulness, self-knowledge, healthy-filtering, positive personalization, point-guard dispositions, nerdiness, wide-ranging knowledge and learning, and independence.
