That\u2019s almost 20% of the population! It\u2019s a lot and it\u2019s on the rise! \n\nMy guest today is Megan Armstrong. If you live in Atlanta, you probably know her name well. She\u2019s been a staple on the fitness and wellness scene for years and people LOVE her. Just a few short months ago, she came forward and started a podcast called 6 Feet Above and revealed that she has spent 16 years of her life wishing she was 6 feet below. Her first season came out, she shared her own struggles with bipolar disorder, bulimia, and depression - and her podcast spread like wildfire. She has touched on a nerve and has shared people\u2019s stories of struggle and success. So today is a story of bouncing back. It\u2019s not always easy. It\u2019s not always pretty. But it\u2019s always real. And I loved her message of compassion, understanding, and how important it is to feel seen and heard.\n\nMegan Armstrong Instagram | 6 Feet Above Podcast\n\nIf you or someone you know is struggling with thoughts of suicide, there is someone available to you at 1-800-273-8255.\n\nI'd love to hear from you about this episode or the podcast!\n\nText me at 470.242.6311\n\nWant more?
