Sharing the whole story behind real people who are putting their lives back together after they have fallen apart. What we rarely hear about, is the hard work that these people have put in after trauma. It seems we rarely give people the opportunity to talk about all of the raw emotions, and challenges that follow a traumatic event. There's a tendency to just gloss over the ugliness, and pretend that people go from trauma to transformation overnight. It does such a disservice to the reality of the human experience, and really minimizes the struggles that people have. At "Now What?", we believe that this is where the real stories lie. We want to get real about the grief, the anxiety, the depression, the shame, and the full spectrum of emotions that people have. We want to destigmatize talking about mental health. We want people who are struggling to see they aren't alone. We aim to share the whole story behind real people who are putting their lives back together after they have fallen apart.
