In this episode of Through the Mental Lens, we dig into the real — and often messy — truth about what it means to live a mentally healthy life.

Mental health isn't about chasing a calm aesthetic or pretending everything’s fine. It's about awareness: of your needs, your patterns, your limits — and the tools that actually help when things get hard.
We’ll explore what a mentally healthy life does (and doesn’t) look like, covering themes like:

• The difference between wellness and performative self-care
• Habits that nourish your mind and body
• The role of therapy, medication, and routine
• Common myths that need to be retired for good
• Why awareness — not perfection — is the real goal

Whether you're navigating anxiety, burnout, or just trying to be more intentional about your mental health, this episode is for you.

🧠 Mental health isn’t a destination. It’s a relationship. And it’s worth nurturing.
