Mental Health for Holiness

About Mental Health for Holiness

A podcast for young Catholic moms who want to build a strong and stable foundation for their mental and emotional health so they can grow in virtue and holiness and love their motherhood. At the age of 24, Talia Kruse was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder type 2. She wondered how this would affect her future, her faith, and her identity. She felt quite hopeless, unable to find or connect with others who had successfully managed their bipolar disorder in a way that led to growing in holiness and virtue. Encouraged by her psychiatrist, she started a journey of mental healing. After getting married and becoming a mother, Talia saw the desperate need that other women (particularly young mothers) needed in learning to manage their own mental health. She began coaching women and became passionate in spreading hope for all those who suffer from the depression, anxiety, and mood swings of everyday life. Talia learned to see her management of mental health as imperative for growing in holiness, and loves to explore the connection between psychology and faith.
