Tanner Tuff Coaching

As the director of student-led mental health advocacy on campus, I'm always trying to think of ways that we can reach more students! I want to share a success story from just a couple weeks ago. 🙌

At the end of Winter Semester, I approached my supervisor with the idea to create a mental health event on campus! My idea was to implement "Chillfest", an event that I had learned about from other universities around the country. This event would help students have fun while also learning techniques for stress-reduction and test anxiety before finals.

Last semester (Fall), we officially created and implemented BYU-I's very own Chillfest! We received help from 15 other departments. Students came from all around campus to create their own stress balls, paint, practice origami, draw, play board games, write in journals, and much more.

It was amazing to see a simple idea grow into a large-scale event that would greatly impact the mental health needs on campus!🧠

I work with some of the greatest people in the world.😎
