Follow Bump on YouTube @BumpInTheRoadPodcast! It takes courage to look within for the answers to life's bumps. And Julie Parker has shown that courage again and again. Where did it lead her? To a place of happiness at the intersection of mental health, relationships, and personal growth. Julie recounts her own experiences with psychosis and how these challenges have shaped her perspective on life and relationships. She looks at her own self-discovery and the courage that was required to confront her own inner demons. The progress wasn't always linear. Of her setback she says: &amp;quot;I want to take relapses and reinterpret them as steps forward&amp;quot; . Our conversation ranges from psychology to AI to the impact of social media on our relationships and mental well-being. Is it creating barriers to genuine human interaction? And if so, what is the antidote? This is a deep and far ranging discussion about our mental health, awareness and the courage to embrace it all. It's about resilience and connection and how to find meaning in the bumps along the way. &amp;amp;nbsp; It's an Award Winning, Amazon&amp;amp;nbsp; best selling book!
