Impact Norwood knows this is a difficult time for everyone. In an effort to help the community start productive conversations around mental health, and provide some comfort during this uncertain time, we are hosting our first-ever virtual speaker event.
Join Impact Norwood on Monday, March 30th from 7pm-8pm as we hear from Mental Health Empowerment Speaker, Ivy Watts. Ivy, a former student-athlete who appeared to have it all together, graduating Summa Cum Laude and a top 30 finalist for the NCAA Woman of the Year Award, on the inside struggled daily with anxiety, self-worth and depression. After finally seeking help, Ivy, who is Mental Health First Aid Certified, promotes mental wellness and reduces stigma around mental illness by sharing her story through public speaking and her blog, Beautifully Simply You. Ivy empowers others to speak their truths, know that they are not alone, learn the beauty of self-love and find strength to keep fighting for their tomorrows.
Youth, families, or anyone looking for a positive way to connect is welcome to join. Please register using the link below. After registration is complete, you will receive an email with information on how to access the event.
