Lindner Center of HOPE will host Community Education Day on Sunday, May 19, 2024 in acknowledgement of May Mental Health Month at Manor House in Mason from 11am to 4pm. The half-day workshop offers an opportunity for community members to enhance their awareness of mental health and wellness. Knowledge helps break down stigma and open the conversation around prevention, treatment, and the mental health journey.
Brandon Saho, Creator of The Mental Game Podcast, Cincinnati native and former sports reporter with WLWT-TV will be the keynote speaker. Saho said goodbye to his dream job in 2022 to focus on his mental health. Saho says he was at his lowest. He was depressed and alone and he didn’t know how to live. Saho spent time as a patient at Lindner Center of HOPE and realized that he didn’t want anyone to struggle like he did, so he started The Mental Game podcast. Saho spends time talking with athletes, musicians, and celebrities with the goal of saving lives through these conversations.
Three sets of breakout sessions follow the keynote presentation. Attendees can design their afternoon according to their areas of interest with 12 total breakout sessions to choose from varying topics such as: depression, self-care, empowered parenting, finding a therapist, addictions and more.
Just prior to the breakout sessions, attendees will be invited to participate in a friendly farewell to Michael G. Leadbetter, MD. Dr. Leadbetter, retired plastic surgeon, will launch his year-long friendship bus tour of the United States June 2024 raising awareness around the importance of friendship and connection for mental wellness. The trip is in memory of Leadbetter’s wife, Debbie, his life partner for 49 years. The couple had planned much of the trip before Debbie passed, with the goal of visiting friends around the country, highlighting the significant role friends played in their lives and their mental wellness.
Community Education Day also offers a resource center for participants to gather information on other community services and offerings.
