About this listen
In this episode of Anxiety Sucks, we explore how mental health advocacy can change the path to care.
Amanda is joined by Michelle Roberts (Teva Pharmaceuticals) and Amy Durham (NAMI OC) to discuss barriers to care, the power of lived experience, and how advocacy—from sharing your story to influencing policy—helps expand access and reduce stigma.
Together, they highlight how community organizations, partnerships, and everyday voices are making a real impact in mental health.
Key Takeaways
Access to care is complex—but advocacy helps bridge the gap
Your voice and experience matter
Peer support and community are powerful tools for change
Advocacy can be as simple as sharing a resource
