Musician Sarah Numada performs live in studio. She recently arrived in Vancouver and feeling very at home. In honour of Mother’s Day, Sarah, and hosts Jay and Ana, discuss the mental health and how it differs for our mother’s. Jay shares his personal experience of seeing his mother in a mental health crisis which was related to her menopause.

Over the phone we talk to Elaine Willis, who is an advocate for people with all types disabilties. This interview sparks another discussion between Sarah Jay and Ana, about the importance of having support during the dark times of life.

We also have an inspiring interview with Gillian Mulvale, from the Mental Health Commission of Canada, on her experience with post partum depression. She talks not only about her mental illness, but also on the stumbling blocks that she encountered, as a woman, while seeking treatment. She concludes with words of wisdom for those still learning how to cope with and overcome their own disorders.
