UNDEFEATED: AN UNBREAKABLE UNBEATABLE SPIRIT
Presenter: Lyndsey Fennelly - Montgomery Companies - Ames, IA
This session explores how living with a mental illness is a treatable journey. Our presenter has experienced 3 behavioral health stays in 10 years, hitting rock bottom numerous times. She questioned her self-worth, had achieved so much professionally but personally felt numb, and she never thought she could escape her own unhealthy thoughts. Then she surrendered, realizing that her best life possible was achievable through acceptance, awareness, and ultimately advocacy for herself and others. She has shared her story on hundreds of stages to thousands of people in an effort to spread a message of hope, healing, and self-love. Hear the story, participate in a great workshop, and walk away owning your best life possible like never before!
