Ep. 64 How are you really? As a therapist, at the start of a session, I will ask a client how they are doing 3-4 different ways. Why? Because we are socially conditioned to provide a stock response, and I must work actively to bypass that response and cause them to reflect on their week and check-in with their emotional and physical state. Because of this social conditioning, as well as stigma around mental health, it is easy to feel emotionally isolated. If you want to learn a new tool to stop emotional isolation, then stick around. Because in this episode of the Mental Health Toolbox, we are talking with Steve Cunningham and Lorenzo Gomez, owners and founders of a new mental health app called WeTree. As you might have noticed, there have been a lot of mental health apps on the rise to aid us in tracking our moods and practice ways to be more mindful and present. In this episode, Steve and Lorenzo discuss what separates WeTree from other mental health apps by aiming to stop emotional isolation.   ♦️

Lorenzo Gomez III began working in customer service as a teenager, more eager to earn experience than a paycheck. As a produce clerk in a grocery store, he realized job satisfaction was more than having his picture displayed above the cilantro bin. Driven to advance his work life with little college experience, Lorenzo utilized valuable lessons from his entry-level jobs to catapult him into high-impact positions. Having gained insight throughout his career journey, he advises young adults that fulfilling work and career advancement come from learning from others, understanding how business really works, and knowing how to thrive in any work environment. Serving as CEO of Geekdom, the largest coworking space in Texas, and as cofounder of the 80/20 Foundation, a philanthropic organization, he puts best practices to use, collaborating with a diverse network of professionals to fortify growth of a tech district in downtown San Antonio--an ecosystem he helped create. As a tenacious team player and technologist with a passion for entrepreneurship, Lorenzo is paying it forward by sharing his on-the-job experiences so that young adults can learn and understand how complex business principles can be observed and applied in the most unlikely places.
