    Youth Mental Health & Storyteller Wellbeing
    Oct 7 2026
    If you care about ethical storytelling in mental health, this conversation gets right to the heart of it: how do you share lived experience in a way that informs others without forcing storytellers to relive the hardest parts again and again?Kristy Wolfe is joined by Katelyn Greer, a lived experience leader whose work spans Kickstand, peer support, youth engagement, and research. Together they revisit the digital story Katelyn created about child abuse, foster care, suicidality, and survival—and why the digital storytelling process felt different from a live interview or repeated public retelling.They talk about what a group workshop can make possible, why feedback helps sharpen the real message of a story, and how digital stories can become powerful tools for staff education, training modules, advocacy, and systems change.You’ll also hear a thoughtful discussion about what audiences miss when they default to “resilience,” why storyteller wellbeing and consent matter, and how lived experience leadership is reshaping research and youth-serving systems.In this episode:- Why digital storytelling can reduce re-traumatization- What made creating a story in community feel supportive- How Katelyn’s story has been used in mental health and training contexts- Why “resilience” can sometimes distract from accountability- How lived experience is shaping peer support and research- Why there are many paths into leadership, advocacy, and academiaA grounded, generous conversation for facilitators, researchers, nonprofits, caregivers, and anyone using digital stories with care.Other Links MentionedKatelyn's digital storyThis episode's blog postKatelyn's websiteImagine Citizens NetworkApathy is BoringDr. Georgina (Gina) DimitropoulosPaCER - Patient and Community Engagement Research, University of CalgaryAbout Our GuestKatelyn Greer is a lived-experience leader and researcher whose work in child and youth mental health is deeply informed by her own experiences of child abuse and neglect, childhood adversity, and involvement with the foster care system.

She leads peer support implementation for Kickstand, Alberta’s Integrated Youth Services Hubs, and also works in youth engagement and research at the University of Calgary.
