Ally Hall was hit with a shock when she began high school: she was diagnosed with a chronic pain illness. Over the years she has developed many techniques that have allowed her to being "growing with" the chronic illness, not trying to grow out of it. Ally, now an award winning writer, talks about using her creative outlets for mental health struggles. She also shares her thoughts on how schools can do a better job of addressing student's mental health.

You'll hear Ally mention "visualization" as one of the mental health techniques she uses. Check our podcast feed for a mini episode guiding you through doing visualization.
