In 2017, Rachel Dacosta sought out for a social media page that talked about mental health. When she realized that there weren't many out there, she decided to start her own. Over the course of just 3 months, her account, @selflovesupply, grew from 10k to 65k. She has found much more than she expected by making such an impactful mental health page. You will find body positive thoughts, content shared from other creators (including Jill G herself), and a community that will back Rachel up the minute someone thinks of leaving an angry comment on her post. Mary Tompros has recently joined Rachel in running the page and shares the journey she was on to coming along the ride. Today, the account has over 270k followers. We discuss what it's like to be on the forefront of mental health on an app that people's mentality can fall apart on.... and so much more.
