No Restraints with Rudy Caseres Episode 32: Linea Johnson

This week on No Restraints with Rudy Caseres my guest is Linea Johnson. Linea is the co-author (along with Cinda Johnson) of the memoir Perfect Chaos: A Daughter's Journey to Survive Bipolar, a Mother's Struggle to Save Her. But she has much more to offer than that. I've been following Linea on social media for a couple years because I admire anyone who can write a full book about their life with bipolar. It can be a lonely journey so it's reassuring for me to read other people's experience and know that I'm far from alone in my struggles to make meaning out of it all. Since the book came out in 2012 Linea has used her platform to advocate for better mental healthcare for all, highlight other mental health advocates as well as offering tips on how to live a productive life and ask for workplace accommodations through her work with BPhope, GirlBoss, and Hello Giggles. Throughout the years she has accomplished so much and worn many different hats but I'm glad she still has a passion for helping make the world more accessible and welcoming for people with disabilities. 

You can follow Linea Johnson and purchase your own copy of Perfect Chaos at the links below.

No Restraints with Rudy Caseres will be back next week.

Be there.

Because it's for your own good.

    ABOUT RUDY

    My name is Rudy Caseres and I am an award-winning public speaker, live-streaming, social media influencer/manager, and storytelling event producer. I am the host of No Restraints with Rudy Caseres where I have live interactive candid discussions with the leading advocates in mental health, human rights, and suicide prevention (currently on hiatus). I also host a monthly panel discussion for The Mighty with the leading mental health advocates in the world. I previously hosted SPSM Chat - Suicide Prevention Social Media where I led lively discussions with various experts in the field of suicidology. I advocate for humane treatment in the mental healthcare system and effective suicide prevention. I have given over 100 presentations in which I have shared my story of living with bipolar, surviving a mental breakdown while serving in the US Army, and fighting against forced psychiatric treatment in front of grad students, doctors, psych ward patients, educators, and youth at junior highs, high schools, and juvenile detention facilities. I have spoken across the country from the California State Capitol at an event headlined by legendary actor Richard Dreyfus to the Shedding Light on Mental Health Conference in Greater Wheeling, West Virginia. My content has been featured in The Mighty, This is My Brave, HealthyPlace, The S Word, OC87 Recovery Diaries, Sweatpants & Coffee, Stigma Fighters, and Schizophrenic NYC. In 2017, I was awarded the NAMI California Outstanding Peer of the Year and I was named one of The Mighty's Mental Health Heroes of 2017. After living in Los Angeles, California most of my life I recently relocated to the Denver, Colorado area.
