Could the very innocence we cherish be a veil for the harsh truths of adulthood? Join me, Lundy, as I share the transformative journey from a childhood cocooned in religious idealism to the often disillusioning realities of the world around us. I open up about my upbringing within a family deeply rooted in Christian nonprofit work and how the noble pursuit of making the world a better place clashed with the sobering societal norms, especially those around gender expectations. This episode promises to unwrap the layers of naivete, revealing the vulnerable yet empowering path towards growth and advocacy.

Pivotal experiences catapulted me towards a fierce determination to confront naivete head-on, setting the stage for my career in clinical mental health. My professional experiences laid bare the paradoxes within the mental health industry, and I take you behind the scenes of my ventures, Khesed Wellness and Quantum Mental Health. These stories are not just recounting of events; they are a call to listeners to embrace the strength in vulnerability and join me in the conversation around mental health reform. This is the episode that challenges you to question, transform, and emerge as an informed advocate for change.
