Hope In Action with Sheri Jones
Share
In this segment from the latest episode of Hope in Action with Sheri Jones , Sheri sits down with Emily White — a recent Juris Doctorate graduate from Michigan State University, now studying for the bar exam, and a dedicated NAMI Lansing volunteer.
Emily opens up about her own mental health journey and the power of peer-to-peer advocacy, sharing how mentors helped her envision a full, meaningful future while living with psychosis. She speaks candidly about leaning on trusted loved ones, the importance of grace and kindness for everyone, and why solidarity — not secrecy — is what truly helps people move forward.
It's an honest, hopeful conversation about resilience, community, and choosing to shine a light rather than stay in the shadows.
