Today you’re going to learn about a school event that I attended and spoke at as a school mental health speaker.

With that, here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:

As a mental health speaker for schools, I am honored every time I’m invited into a school and community to share my experience of growing up with mental health challenges. I fully support when a school is willing to allow students to skip out on things like math and science for a day or two in order to address the deeper issues and challenges that they are facing like anxiety and depression.

When working as a mental health speaker for high school or youth mental health speaker, I share the personal stories from my own life. This includes things like being expelled from three schools, being admitted to a mental hospital for multiple extended stays, self-harm, and attempting to take my own life at the age of 10. These are the issues that youth are facing and the ones that need to be addressed as a school mental health speaker.

And, it’s not just a school issue. Mental health in schools is best addressed by involving and educating the entire community. As you will see in this video, the students understand the importance of addressing these issues as well.

In short, this video will show you actionable ways that you can address mental health in your school in 2019.

#MentalHealth #Speaker #MikeVeny

Today you’re going to learn EXACTLY how I connect with students as a youth speaker (step-by-step).

In fact, in this video, I’m going to show you a portion of a keynote presentation that I delivered.

With that, here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:

As a person that has struggled with mental health challenges since childhood, I have a unique perspective as a youth motivational speaker. As you’ll see in this video, when I’m talking with students as a youth speaker, I’m not just talking at them. I’m sharing my personal story, including the actual struggles that I went through.

Instead of just telling them about mental health challenges, I walk them through my own journey which included multiple expulsions, multiple extended stays in a mental hospital, and attempting to take my own life as an elementary student. I struggled with anxiety, depression, anger as a result of the depression, and self-harm among other challenges.

School can be difficult for anyone with or without mental health challenges. And, that’s why students need youth inspirational speakers that are willing to share their stories so the students can relate and know that they are not alone. As a motivation speaker, I enjoy sharing my story, even the painful moments, in order to help our youth not have to struggle through the same things that I struggled through.

In short, this video will show you actionable ways I can help transform stigma at your youth event in 2019.
