After coming out of Major Clinical Depression in December of 2000—a depression which persisted for nearly 4 years—Roxanne was told that she had a 90% chance of relapse. That wasn't a statistic she was willing to accept. Through research and her own trial-and-error, she has developed an intentional lifestyle that has kept her depression-free for more than 7 years and off meds since January 2005. Join us as Roxanne shares her own personal battle with depression and we explore her seven daily steps for wellness.
