"Getting outside saved me." Former evangelical pastor turned mental health advocate Andy Neal wants you to push back against the resistance within to find what helps you flourish. After losing his faith, his work, and his community, Andy explored what in the world could possibly help him feel safe in himself again. Through one fateful conversation with a therapist, his entire life changed. Now as a social media influencer and hiking enthusiast, Andy uses his personal experience and life as a foster parent to advocate for children and adults alike to get the help they need AND to push for better services and availability at every possible level. We don't all need a platform to make a difference, so take notes.
