Supporting young leaders starts with prioritizing their mental well-being.
As part of the KYS 2026 Youth Social Media Takeover, Faith is sharing her personal approach to mental health. She defines it as a holistic state of the mind, body, and soul, and she emphasizes the importance of proactively implementing positive habits while targeting the things that drain us.
By setting clear goals, journaling, and cultivating a strong community, Faith is actively building the future she envisions for herself.
We are incredibly inspired by her self-awareness and leadership. Join us in celebrating our youth advocates as they take over this month!

KYSCG Youth Takeover: Meet Myiah!
Here is a special feature from Myiah, who is giving us a real look at what it means to grow up, navigate change, and show up for yourself.
From 5-year-old dreams to 17-year-old reality, complete with driving, gaming, and big career goals, Myiah reminds us that growing up is a journey. But the most important part of that journey? Taking care of your mental health.
In Myiah’s Words: “Mental health has always been an important part of who I am today. I have my good and bad days, but I always have to remember to look for the light, and that it’s okay to not be okay!”
