Motivational speaker / singer / songwriter Sara Westbrook talks with mindyourmind volunteer Brittany in our second interview with her (the first was in print...check it out here) about the positive and helpful messages she hopes to get across to young people. Sara talks with us about how she got started out in what she does and how she developed her program, called UPower. Dealing with the loss of her father had a huge emotional impact on Sara and she shares with us what got her through the difficult grief and loss of someone that was such a huge and important part of her life. When asked what she would want to say to someone going through a hard time or break up, Sara says "Really get real with your emotions!". She has a positive outlook on life and picking yourself up when things aren't going so well. Take a look at some of her coping tips and maybe give them a try when you need a change...
