Choosing Life: Anna Keibler on Mental Illness, Motherhood, and Writing a Legacy
Description
On this episode of Walk and Roll Live – Disability Stories, hosts Doug Vincent and Addie Rich welcome author and mental health advocate Anna Keibler for a powerful and honest conversation about living with mental illness as a disability.
Anna shares her journey with bipolar disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder, including a moment of crisis that led her to seek emergency psychiatric care and ultimately change the course of her life. She speaks openly about the realities of parenting while managing serious mental illness, the stigma surrounding mental health disabilities, and the courage it takes to ask for help.
Her time in treatment became the catalyst for her writing career, leading to multiple published books and international recognition. What began as survival has become purpose—writing a legacy for her children and using her voice to help others feel less alone.
This episode is a meaningful conversation about mental health, disability, resilience, and the power of choosing life.
