Welcome to the premiere episode of the Flourishing Minds Podcast with Chris Underhill.

In this series, we delve into the stories of extraordinary individuals making a profound impact in the realm of mental health and community development globally.

In this episode, we have the privilege of introducing you to our first guest, Joy Bittner, a social impact leader all the way from Quito, Ecuador.

She is the co-founder and director of a non-profit, Vida Plena, meaning a ‘flourishing life’ in Spanish, an organization committed to providing evidence-based depression treatment to local communities and refugees, ensuring that no one is left behind from receiving quality medical care, regardless of their socio-economic circumstances.

In this conversation, we discussed Joy’s journey into social entrepreneurship, the mental health crisis in Latin America, the impact of the 2024 Gulf War on community development services, and much more.
