Welcome to our new Let’s Talk About It podcast, where the founder of On A Dragonfly’s Wings, and host of this podcast, Kris Miller talks through ALL. THE. THINGS. Having real and open conversations is how we support people. Topics like mental health, mental illness, self-care, grief, addiction, eating disorders, and suicide are all things we don’t talk about. Why? Because they are hard conversations. We are breaking the stigma on this podcast and talking about all of these things and so much more. Join us in sharing your voice.
Special guests will help bring light to many tough topics that need more exposure. Check in here every other Monday for new episodes illuminating many important topics. First episode dropped in January 2024.
