Bridging the Gap: Chantel Garrett on Revolutionizing Mental Health Care

Our goal at strong is to see that that pathway completely changes, such that, say, you know, A-Year-Old, maybe like my brother, starts to hear voices or starts to hear sounds or different things when he's listening to his music and he gets curious about what that is, and he searches on his phone.

Ever felt frustrated by the long wait for mental health care? Stephen Hays chats with Chantel Garrett, the visionary behind Strong365, about transforming the mental health landscape. With a mission to slash the average 15-month wait time from symptom onset to treatment, Chantel's team leverages online education, 24/7 peer support, and specialized care connections to bring help faster.

She dives into how her marketing background paved the way for promoting effective early psychosis care models used in countries with universal health care. The conversation touches on hurdles like credentialing and licensing that mental health companies face and how Strong365 is tackling these issues head-on. Chantel also opens up about her personal journey, including her commitment to underserved communities and how mindfulness has helped her connect with her true self.

This episode offers a blend of practical insights and personal reflections, making it a must-listen for anyone passionate about mental health.
