Ky 5 to Thrive!

Ky had an incredible capacity to give and receive love that was unaffected by his mental illness. Here are a few of our favorite things we learned from him.

It’s OK not to be OK

- You’re not alone—1 in 5 people face mental health challenges.
- Asking for help shows courage, not weakness.
- Help break the stigma—mental health matters as much as physical health.

 Be Authentically YOU

- Show up as your true self and embrace what makes you unique.
- You’re one of a kind, so believe in yourself!
- Swap screen time for real face time.

Be like a Golden Retriever

- Remove the conditions for your love, and give it unconditionally
- Live with extreme loyalty 
- Have a passion for happiness without seeking anything in return

End Bullying Now

- Intimidating others mentally or physically is a crime
- Use your words and actions with intention and care.
- Speak up—stand against bullying whenever you see it.

Commit to Check-ins

- Never be too busy to connect with your loved ones.
- Connection is vital to our well-being.
- Make it a habit—call or text loved ones weekly.
