# 25 An Interview with Alana @StomptheStigma Podcast

A candid discussion with my young friend, Alana, about growing up with mental illness and the stigma that surrounded it. Find out why and how she created the podcast StomptheStigma and how she hopes that it will raise awareness and that mental illnesses and seeking help will be as recognized as going for a dental check up. You can find Alana on Instagram @stompthestigmayyc and streaming on iHeartRadio, GooglePodcasts, ApplePodcasts and Spotify. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/shelly-qualtieri/message
