Self-perception in mental health shapes how we experience the world—and how we recover. In this deeply moving episode of The Wellness Connection, Greg Wasserman shares his personal mental health journey after reaching a breaking point two and a half years ago. Through an intensive healing program, Greg discovered how long-held beliefs like “I’m not good enough” and “I’m a burden” were quietly driving his pain—and how learning to be emotionally vulnerable became the key to reclaiming his life.
This episode is for anyone navigating mental health struggles, those supporting loved ones, or simply anyone curious about emotional growth and connection. Greg’s story offers powerful insights into how we can retrain our inner narratives, build emotional awareness, and embrace vulnerability as a strength—not a flaw.
In this episode, we explore:
The weight of feeling “never good enough”
Why emotional awareness is crucial to healing
How distorted self-perceptions form and how to shift them
Rewriting family expectations and inner narratives
Redefining strength through emotional honesty
Finding belonging through community and conversation
You are not alone. You’re not a burden. And it’s okay to ask for help.
Whatever you're feeling—you're not the only one.
