One thing that I have always loved about Selena Gomez is her commitment to mental health. The superstar is an advocate for mental health and has shown us all the strength in putting your mental health first.
Mental Health is just as important as physical health and Selena recognizes that. She’s has her own journey with mental health and has been public with it. I can’t even imagine what it is like to have something so personal and intimate twisted by the media, but they definitely haven’t always been kind to her about it.
With the pandemic, mental health has been more on the forefront than ever. In a world where there are so many mental health start ups, Gomez has teamed up with Mandy Teefey (her Mom) and Daniella Pierson (founder of the Newsette) to launch, Wondermind.
In a press release, is stated that Wondermind, “destigmatizes and democratizes mental health,” and Teefey said, “We hope to be the one stop shop for all mental fitness and conversation.”
Wondermind’s ecosystem will serve, “daily content, interviews with experts, and other tools and resources. There’ll also be a weekly podcast featuring a variety of guests, including therapists and celebrities who are known for their mental health advocacy.”
Gomez, Teefey, and Pierson hope to eventually expand Wondermind to books, exercise journals, and streaming content.
We’ll talk to prominent psychiatrists and therapists who charge a thousand dollars an hour, and share their resources,” Pierson said in an interview with Entrepreneur. “We’ll also interview celebrities and ask them questions most people don’t ask. We want to be that place where people feel comfortable to talk about the things under the hood.”
I am excited for Wondermind, which is due to launch in 2022. We hope you are too.
