GenZ is even worse – with almost 90% indicating that they struggle with their mental health (this generation represents teens and young adults up to about age 24 – which is the generation that MY kids are in).
The most common problems cited are depression, anxiety, and stress (which is the “bad” news) – but the “good” news is that more and more people are starting to appreciate the importance of their #mentalwellness – and are seeking out healthy ways to cope.
Mental Wellness Coaches can be an important piece of the solution to this massive public health challenge – especially because they can help clients get to the root cause of many mental wellness challenges.
