This is My Brave - True Stories of Recovery from Mental Illness and Addiction

Join Suzane with special guests Jennifer and Anne Marie, creators of the incredible community and global show, This Is My Brave.

During this live show, they will discuss the stigma around mental health and how they use storytelling and personal stories to showcase how others have overcome depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, PTSD, psychosis, OCD, postpartum depression, borderline personality disorder, dissociative identity disorder, trichotillomania, anorexia, bulimia, sexual assault, alcoholism, substance use disorder and more.

Since 2014, This Is My Brave has produced over 75 unique shows in cities across the United States featuring nearly 875 storytellers.

This Is My Brave – The Show is a live presentation of touching essays, original music, poetry and comedy performed by a dozen individuals living with – or loving someone with – a mental illness or substance use condition. Shows are held in cities and towns across the United States, as well as in Australia. Auditions are held in each city in advance of the show, creating a cast made up of members of the local community. They rehearse together with a local producer before presenting their stories live on stage in front of an audience. There is strength found in people coming together as a community, propelling a movement forward toward a common goal.
