Description:
Today you’re going to learn EXACTLY how you can show empathy to others.
In fact, in this video, I’m going to introduce you to a friend of mine, Vikie Shanks, who learned how to empathize the hard way—by going through challenging situations. She shares with us how the difficult times she’s been through have helped her to connect with others.
With that, here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:
Vikie Shanks shares with me some of the personal and difficult experiences that she has been through in life. However, instead of getting stuck in these situations she has used them to help her learn to connect and empathize with others who are going through similar experiences. But it doesn’t stop there. We also discuss how we can show empathy to people even if we haven’t been through the same situation as them.
In this video, Vikie and I talk about the importance of sharing our own personal stories with others and the need for more people to be open and honest. When it comes to transforming the stigma around mental health, part of the problem is that too many people aren’t willing to talk about it. The more we are able to share, the more we are able to help people on both sides of the situation.
We share a few tips that you can use on how to talk to others to help them open up and be honest about their situations.
In short, this video will show you actionable ways to connect with and show empathy for others in 2019.

AND I’M ISSUING YOU A ***CHALLENGE***, FRIEND!
1) Film yourself sharing your own raw, unedited story to help spread the message about the importance of being open and honest (on Instagram Stories or YouTube or any other platform you prefer).
2) Send it to me or tag me on social media @mikeveny:
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mikeveny. . .

Remember, transforming the stigma around mental health starts with getting it into the conversation. Don’t be afraid to share the unsugar-coated version of your story to help encourage others to do the same. The more people are able to see the reality that no one is living a “picture perfect life,” the more we can learn to empathize with others.

#1 School Mental Health Speaker – 2020 (Actionable!)
Today you’re going to find out EXACTLY why I do the mental health work that I do.
In fact, in this video, I’m going to tell you a little about my own struggle with mental health in school.
With that, here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:
I’m a mental health speaker with a uniques perspective. I don’t work in the mental health field because I have advanced degrees in health and wellness. I do it because I have personal experience with mental health challenges. I’ve had them for as long as I can remember.
I was “that kid” in school. The poorly behaved one that caused problems. There are multiple stories that I wish didn’t happen, including one that I share in this video and in my keynote sessions as a school mental health speaker.
Mental health challenges like depression are often something that you don’t just realize that you’re dealing with. They involve thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. In the video, I describe the way that most people realize there is a problem.
I came from a great home and had a family that did the best they could for me. But life has pain in it. That’s the reality. And, if you don’t know how to properly deal with some of those situations it can make it a real struggle. However, knowing how to deal with pain and struggle isn’t something that we naturally know how to do. Students need guidance in this area. And, after dealing with my own personal struggles, I want to be a mental health speaker for high schools that actually helps make a difference for those that are struggling.
In short, this video will learn my heart behind the work that I do and how it can benefit your school in 2019.

Anger Management: How to Control Anger – 2020 – (Actionable!)
Today you’re going to learn EXACTLY how to start controlling your anger(step-by-step).
In fact, in this video, I’m going to share with you the three things that have made a difference in my own life.
With that, here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:
I’ve struggled with anger management my entire life. My childhood was full of examples of my lack of knowing how to deal with anger. In the video, I share some specific examples of how this played out throughout my school years. I was an angry person.
As an adult, I still struggle with anger management. However, while in my childhood I acted out, often aggressively, now as an adult I tend to go too far the other direction and bottle it up. Neither option is a good one and that’s why you need to learn how to control anger.
I’ve found there are three things that have helped me and it’s not reading anger management books or counting to ten. Here are the three things that I talk about in the detail:
Learning that anger can be depression in disguise.
Learning to identify where you are holding anger in your body and what you can do to release it (Hint-hint, it involves a few types of yoga).
The fact that anger isn’t always a bad thing. You can actually learn to turn your anger into a positive thing.
If you want to learn how to let the anger go, this is the video for you.
In short, this video will show you actionable ways to learn how to control your anger in 2019.
