Sam Brodsky

Sam is a staff writer for Wondermind. She previously covered fitness and health—mental health included—for POPSUGAR. She comes from a family of social workers, so mental health was always a topic of conversation at the dinner table—and she’s grateful for that. Sam’s a lover of poetry, Peloton workouts, and the Oxford comma (the most glorious punctuation mark of them all). She knows emotions are wonderfully messy and complex, so she’s excited to have you along for the mental fitness ride with her!
