Season 4 of The Ariza Inspire Podcast is all about stories. Stories of people's mental health journeys and the lessons they learned along the way. This week, I sat down with Kristen Harootunian to discuss her mental health journey.
Author | Speaker | Holistic Coach: Brooke is dedicated to the intersection of overall wellness and ancestral wisdom. By integrating Earth-based healing, such as herbalism and nature immersion, with evidence-based modalities like somatic and cognitive behavioral therapies, Brooke facilitates a deep, restorative connection between the self and the natural world.
