I first met Dr. Jessi Gold at Selena Gomez’s Rare Beauty Mental Health Summit on World Mental Health Day May 2024 in NYC. At this event, the US surgeon general, Dr. Vivek Murthy, Selena Gomez and Dr. Jessi Gold talked about the importance of the mind-body connection in mental health and the role that community plays in mental wellness. Dr. Jessi Gold, MD, is a medical doctor and psychiatrist who holds the esteemed position of the first Chief Wellness Officer for the University of Tennessee System, a role encompassing 59,000 students. Dr. Gold spoke about the challenges that college students and graduate students face. On this episode of “The Vault”, we discussed how students are at risk for high functioning depression and ways to cope. Her new book is geared towards decreasing mental health stigma and encouraging open dialogue about emotional and psychological well-being.
