You've probably heard of Kristen Bell. She's well known for many of her popular roles, especially playing Anna in the Frozen movies and Eleanor in The Good Place.

Week one, you were challenged to dress up and upload pictures. Week two, you were challenged to get out there and log activities. This week, I want to send you to our website, particularly to our blog. Did you know that every one of these daily posts also shows up in the "Content" portion of our website? It's set up as a blog, which also means you can comment on each individual post. Your challenge this week is to check out the posts and interact with us. Leave us some comments. We'll count up every comment posted by a registered participant this week and on Friday morning we'll draw a few winners. It's Celebrity Spotlight Sunday!(And it's Mothers' day! Happy Mothers' Day to all of the moms out there!) You may recognize Emma Watson from any number of movies, interviews, or appearances. Did you know that she's shared about her own struggles with mental health? See her interview with Paris Lees on British Vogue where she talks about mental illness and her HeForShe Campaign speech at the UN talking about societal stigmas behind men and mental health. What do you think about celebrities being advocates for mental health? What are some ways we can all do more to raise awareness and acceptance while fighting the stigma often associated with mental illness? Video Links:
