Today on Vulnerable I talk with Lisa Jakub. You may remember her from Mrs. Doubtire, Independence Day, and The Beautician and the Beast, to name a few. I had the pleasure of meeting her at 90's Con.

In this episode, Lisa shares with me how she started acting as a child and the events that led to her decision to quit the industry. She details the work she did to discover herself outside of performance and how she addressed her anxiety and depression. Lisa has written two books and is the CEO and founder of two organizations. Blue Mala is a pay-what-you-can mental health community that offers yoga, meditation, and mindfulness practices. Mission Flexible is a non-profit organization that supports veterans through mindfulness retreats.

Lisa is inspiring because she has built a life that she loves. I hope this episode is encouraging to everyone to care for their mental health and seek community in the process.
