Mental Health and Creative Careers: A Chat with Jaconna Jacobs

But when you know in your heart you are not supposed to be in that space, like doing that, granted, I might have done something like that in college, for sure, but like post grad, when I'm kind of like.
Ever wondered how to balance mental health with a demanding career? In this episode of 'Pennie For Your Thoughts', host Pennie Anassi dives into the nitty-gritty of mental health, relationships, and the creative industry. Pennie starts by breaking down the differences between bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, and schizophrenia, shedding light on how these conditions can strain friendships. She also tackles the tough question of how to support friends who might be struggling without feeling overwhelmed yourself.
Then, there's a shift to pop culture with a discussion on Future's 'Mask On' initiative and the internet's fascination with other people's children. But the heart of this episode is Pennie's conversation with Jaconna Jacobs, founder of Everything Boisterous and a creative at Adidas. These two met during an internship with Vashtie Kola and have stayed close ever since. Jaconna shares her journey from internship to landing her dream job, including all the challenges and triumphs along the way.
They chat about the importance of knowing when to move on from a job that doesn't align with your purpose and how to maintain composure in high-pressure environments. Self-care practices like taking time to disconnect and enjoy live music also get a spotlight. Whether you're curious about mental health, career growth, or just need some heartfelt advice, this episode has something for you.
