About the Author

Hey! Katey Roshetko here! Let me introduce myself as concisely as I can.

I'm a goal-setting, high-achieving, multi-passionate woman with a great job, wonderful marriage, amazing friends, and supportive family. I also deal with depression, anxiety, and frequent panic attacks.

For the last year I've been on a mental health journey. I've been diving in deep to understand mental illness and how someone like me can still thrive in life.

Just because I'm depressed doesn't mean I want to lay in bed all day! I want a happy, successful life and I'm willing to fight to get it. There are just a different set of challenges that I have to overcome to get there.  

But I'm trying. I haven't given up yet and I don't want you to either. Together, through the good days and the bad, we can transform our mental illness into mental toughness. 

We can use what we always thought was a weakness and turn it into a strength.
