Kara-Leigh Lussier

Just a Canadian girl..eldest daughter, middle child, product of divorce. Mom of 3, wife, sister. When i lost my brother I was working on a psych degree, then working in social services, on crisis lines aa a responder, volunteer at the homeless shelter...I compartmentalized it all for years to hold it together for everyone else, then it destroyed my health. Now I cant work, drive, go to school etc...my life is about advocacy for mental health, chronic illness, navigating the canadian medical system, and sourdough bread! I am working on finishing my book about my brother, and starting a podcast to maintain some sort of life amidst chronic illness and grief.
