In today’s episode, we'll unravel the confusion between laziness and depression, two terms that are often mistakenly used to describe the same experience. We’ll explore the true power and consequences of using these terms interchangeably and how it can add to the stigma. Along the way, I'll discuss a few of my own experiences and how the confusion of these terms has affected me personally, as well as some tips to help you of a loved one navigate these struggles. By the end of this episode, you should have a clear idea of the difference and even know how to bring awareness to others on this topic.
