I had a budding career as an attorney. I was making more money than I knew how to spend. I was living in the Upper East Side. Everything looked promising.On paper, it seemed like Justin Maffett had achieved the life he'd always wanted, but instead of enjoying it, he felt trapped in a career that was making him miserable.&nbsp;Then in 2020, COVID lockdowns forced Justin into a state of physical and emotional isolation, and that simmering resentment he felt towards his work turned into a mental health crisis - followed by arrests and felony charges - that would upend his entire life.May is Mental Health awareness month, so in this episode we're hearing about Justin's long journey back from the brink, and why when it comes to Mental Health, we need radical transparency.About JustinJustin Maffett is a writer, lawyer, and current graduate student at HEC Paris Business School. Previously, he was a New York City and later Washington, D.C. based corporate lawyer at two premier international law firms where he specialized in financial regulations. He currently lives in Paris, France and New York City.LinksLinktree: <a href="https://linktr.ee/justinmaffett" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://linktr.ee/justinmaffett</a>Book: <a href="https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/710451/profiles-in-mental-health-courage-by-patrick-j-kennedy-and-stephen-fried/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Profiles in Mental Health Courage</a>Film: <a href="https://filmfreeway.com/TheWildestPearlAnAutobiographicalMentalHealthStory" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Wildest Pearl</a>About The BreakoutThe Breakout is the hit podcast hosted by human resources and change experts Dr. Keri Ohlrich and Kelly Guenther.
