If You Could See Me

Life, Motherhood, and the Pursuit of Sanity is Erin Mahone’s first book in which she talks candidly about the challenges of growing up in a family where mental illness was pervasive and a sense of humor was an absolute necessity! She addresses how these formative experiences and relationships impact the how and why of her existence and her firm and absolute believe that we are all capable of greatness no matter who we are, where we come from, or what stories we have internalized to convince ourselves otherwise.

Erin Mahone For over a decade Erin Mahone has worked to build a stronger, more inclusive world. Her work is inspired by a childhood growing up in a family touched by mental illness, years working in the mental health field, and her own experiences with anxiety and depression. Erin learned from her grandparents the value of humility, humor, and acceptance. She believes that life's struggles, no matter how severe, do not define, or limit, a person’s capacity for greatness, achievement, or love. Every person has a distinct story that is worthy of respect. Erin combines storytelling, writing, music, and other elements to teach this message with unique and inspiring offerings for audiences large and small.
