Hi, Lulu here, and this episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and as someone who reports on mental health, who likes talking to people about their mental health and what they look to in science, in the natural world, in faith, in friendship, wherever it may be, to help guide them through the rough patches of life, I just wanted to take a moment to say what seems to help people turn corners, find relief, get out of ruts, and even flourish is having someone with you.

As much as we can feel private about our mental health struggles, you do not have to go it alone.

So this May, why not treat your mental health to a buddy?

And who better to talk to than a fully licensed mental health therapist?

With over 30,000 therapists available, BetterHelp has someone you can talk to available at pretty much any time that's convenient for you at the push of a button.

And because finding the help you need often depends on the therapist client vibe, rest assured, with BetterHelp, you can switch providers at any time.

Remember, truly, your mental health matters and you don't have to go it alone.
