Joe and Hampton dive deep into local business owners, groups, events, and whatever else we decide too!
In this powerful episode of The Stick Lounge Podcast, we sit down with Sage and her mother, Meegan, for a raw, honest conversation about navigating severe mental health challenges as a family. Sage has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, and together they walk us through the long, difficult road toward getting her the proper care, medication, and support she needed.
Sage opens up about the hallucinations that once dominated her daily life — from the unsettling presence of an old woman who appeared and “glitched” in and out of the hallway, to the dark figure she refers to as her “demon,” a constant companion during her most difficult moments. Meegan shares the emotional toll of fighting for answers, advocating through a maze of providers, and refusing to give up on her daughter.
Their story spans early struggles with drugs and alcohol, a brief period of experimenting with “magic,” and the turning point where Sage finally received the right diagnosis, the right treatment, and discovered her true higher power. What begins as a story of crisis becomes one of resilience and transformation.
Today, Sage is not only stable and supported — she works as a peer‑to‑peer mentor, helping others facing the same challenges she once battled alone. Her journey has come full circle, and her voice now guides people toward hope, resources, and recovery.
This episode is heartfelt, intense, and ultimately uplifting. It’s a testament to perseverance, family, and the life‑changing impact of proper mental health care. A conversation you won’t want to miss.
