Dr. Caroline Leaf Podcast

In this podcast I interview Judge Shelyna Brown and Lori Volkman, JD on the current state of the mental health legal system, how it's failing to help those touched by this system, and what we can do about it. This podcast is vital to anyone who works in the legal profession, has a family member or friend in the system, or for anyone who wants to gain a better understanding of what is going on and how to help make a difference in this world! Judge Shelyna Brown and Lori Volkman also share some helpful tips on how they manage their mental health and how to start getting your community involved in mental health initiatives.   Judge Shelyna Brown and Lori Volkman will both be guest speakers at my 2019 mental health summit in Dallas, TX.
