Valerie Braylovskiy: Confronting Anxiety & Creative Outlets

To Be Honest Podcast

On this episode of the TBH Podcast we chat with Valerie Braylovskiy, a Bay Area native and current student at Pomona College! Throughout our conversation, Valerie shares her personal experience with Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), her transition to college and managing her anxiety during the COVID-19 pandemic. Valerie also talks about pursuing her passion for writing and how that helps her cope during difficult times and transitions.
You can learn more about Valerie by following her on instagram @valeriebraylovskiy AND checking out some of her writing here and here.
Thank you for listening to the To Be Honest podcast! We hope to be an open platform to youth and young adults across the Bay Area who would like to talk about their experience(s) with mental health and substance use.
