Today, we're thrilled to have Karlee Jo, the founder of Unwell Warriors, joining us. Growing up on a South Dakota farm, Karlee faced significant mental health challenges, leading to a pivotal stay in a behavioral unit. Her experiences inspired her to create Unwell Warriors, a platform supporting mental health journeys. Karlee's memoir, Grippy Sock Vacation, details her adventures and lessons learned during her time in the unit and her self-care journey post-discharge. Join us as Karlee shares her powerful story and mission.
