005: Food Blogging and Mental Health with Jade Jones

In this episode we discuss food blogging and mental health, specifically depression, and ways to keep a grip on your job while enduring tough times. Determine what your triggers are so you can address them before they overtake you. Make time for yourself for 20-30 min a day - exercise, read, any self-love, etc. Let organization become your norm and say goodbye to "living by the seat of your pants." Let technology work FOR you and still have easy access to all your work. Learn to use and live by a flexible calendar - built-in with to-do's and required down time to deal with mental health. Learn to batch work each week making and photographing anywhere from 2-4 new recipes. This allows for you to be productive even when a bout of depression hits. Make connecting with others a priority so you're not alone - through groups, conferences, and using social media to highlight real life struggles so you don't feel so alone. Ask for help and don't try to do it all!
