Jordan created Dreamful podcast because she was having a hard time finding just the right bedtime story to put her two little girls to sleep. So, I did what any normal person would do and said “I can just make one myself! How hard could it be?”.   With a background in art, writing, and theatre; she has been able to put those skills to good use. Her podcast started as a little thing for her kids, then it grew, and grew, and grew. Now, she gets to share bedtime stories with thousands of people all over the world.   Although created for kids, Dreamful podcast developed a large adult following. Many of her listeners struggle with anxiety, depression, and difficulty sleeping at night. This is relatable for Jordan as she too struggled with anxiety in her own life. Listen as Jordan vulnerably shares her own story, and how today she is grateful her podcast is able to help those struggling with mental illness to find peaceful and restful sleep.   “It's not going to disappoint anybody if I say no to doing a project, no to doing a family picnic because I don't want to...” -- Jordan Blair   Time Stamps   01:22 – Welcome to the ‘Strong by Design' podcast 2:02 - Get to know today's special guest, 'Dreamful' Podcast creator Jordan Blair 4:45 - Jordan recounts the beginnings of her mental health struggles 7:40 - Panic Attack: What is it and how does it feel? 09:10 - How stress and sleepless nights affect her vision and hearing 15:09 - The importance of setting boundaries to maintain a healthy work-life balance 16:10 - The journey to healing: Jordan shares what led her to seek professional help 21:50 - How growing up in the digital age impacts your kid's mental health 30:54 - Discover the inspiration behind the creation of the 'Dreamful' podcast 38:12 - Jordan shares tips to prevent mental health relapse 40:31 - Mental health SOS: Knowing when to reach out for help 42:45 - Jordan talks about her plans for the 'Dreamful' podcast 44:00 - Where you can go to connect with Jordan Blair and learn more about the 'Dreamful Podcast'         Resources:   ·       Dreamful Podcast ·       DreamfulStories.com   Connect w/ Jordan: ·       Facebook ·       Instagram   Connect w/ CriticalBench:  ●      Youtube ●      Facebook ●      Instagram ●      CriticalBench.com ●      StrongByDesignPodcast.com
