What is the
Scendent Advocate Program?
Stigma is the #1 reason people don't seek help for their mental health. The Scendent Advocate Program exists to dismantle that — one authentic story at a time.
Over 8 weeks, you'll learn everything you need to show up consistently on social media as a mental health advocate. How to tell your story. How to film and post content that actually moves people. How to build an audience and keep it. And how to do all of it without burning out or crossing your own boundaries.
This isn't content creation for its own sake. It's a mission. And you're the most qualified person to lead it — because you've lived it.
