'Everyone has experienced F.O.M.O' with Patrick Mcginnis

‘Beauty is in the imperfection. I think the parts of me that I like the best are maybe the parts that nobody see’s which are super crazy and aren’t perfect. But they’re the parts that make me different and the parts that teach me the most. I’m actually not afraid of that side of me. I embrace it. Some of the things we are not perfect at, we have to work on them too. But they are definitely a part of who we are as much as the stuff we love to tell everybody about. The flaws are good too’ Patrick Mcginnis We are truly grateful to have some absolutely incredible advocates like Patrick getting behind the Global Efforts and sharing their stories to help us change the narrative around mental health especially through the corporate sectors.
