Struggle Creates Strength started solely off of my internal drive to help people facing mental health struggles. I have personally struggled with mental health my entire life, so it is a subject that I hold close to my heart. By no means am I an expert on the topic of mental health, but through various personal encounters I have become a very knowledgeable mental health advocate. I am someone who constantly has a smile engraved on my face, but for a long time it was not genuine. My smile was used to mask the emotional struggles and distress that I encountered on an every day basis. Ultimately, I created Struggle Creates Strength to prove that EVERYONE HAS A STORY. No two stories are the same, but every story has the potential to help someone else. Through the podcasts I have filmed thus far I have learnt more about myself and realized that I can rate to certain extents with so many more people than I thought. I’m so excited to start a movement that has the potential to shake the world with the power of speech! Share your support and join the movement and help someone else’s today

Tyler Smith is a 22 year-old man who has figuratively been put through hell, but has taken his struggles and used them to make the world a better place. Tyler is 1 of 13 people who lives to tell the gruesome story of April 6, 2018. He was on the Humboldt Broncos hockey team when their bus struck a semi-truck head on. The crash stopped everyone in their tracks and formed an indescribable support system for the players and families effected by the crash. To this day we constantly hear the phrase, “Humboldt Strong” and Tyler Smith exemplifies this by sharing his story. Tyler suffered several physical injuries during the crash and has almost fully recovered from them over time, but one thing that will never heal is the loss of 16 members of his Humboldt family. He possesses courage, vulnerability, and endless strength proven by sharing his story. Tyler continues to share his story with the world to ultimately help others realize that it’s okay to speak up and it’s okay to not be okay. He has created sweaters, hoodies, and shirts reading “Not Alone” and “It’s okay to not be okay.” His brand strikes vulnerable conversations and allows people to wear two powerful messages on their chest proving strength and acceptance. Tyler’s strength to be able to share his story exemplifies that there’s always a way find light in the life you’re living.
