Erin Mahone

For over a decade Erin Mahone has worked to build a stronger, more inclusive world. Her work is inspired by a childhood growing up in a family touched by mental illness, years working in the mental health field, and her own experiences with anxiety and depression. Erin learned from her grandparents the value of humility, humor, and acceptance. She believes that life's struggles, no matter how severe, do not define, or limit, a person’s capacity for greatness, achievement, or love. Every person has a distinct story that is worthy of respect. Erin combines storytelling, writing, music, and other elements to teach this message with unique and inspiring offerings for audiences large and small.
