28 April: Selena talks with E! News why she’s greateful to have Serendipity join the Rare Impact Fund!

Serendipity Brands is now partnering with the Rare Impact Fund to make a delicious difference by donating $1 from every meal all May long to support mental health education!

In an exclusive interview with E! News, Selena Gomez shared why she is so grateful to have Serendipity Brands partnering with the Rare Impact Fund in time for Mental Health Awareness Month.

For starters, Selena recommends focusing your energy on the things that make you happy and acknowledging what is outside of your control. “For me, things like music, writing, and being with friends and family make me happy,” she exclusively told E! News, “so I surround myself with people and things that bring positivity and happiness to my life.”

Another important step is to learn about yourself. According to Selena, understanding and acknowledging your feelings and being aware of triggers will help you get ahead of them.

“The more in tune I am with this, the better equipped I am to try and implement the coping skills and tools I’ve learned,” she added.

“It’s not always easy to talk about how you’re feeling,” Selena shared. “But having a close friend or family member you trust and can confide in is so important.”

“Just by eating ice cream, you can help raise funds to address the gaps in mental health services and education,” she said. “We launched the Rare Impact Fund in 2020 as part of Rare Beauty’s commitment to give people access to the resources they need to support their mental health. Our mission is to increase access to mental health services in educational settings and destigmatize mental health.”

“I’ve been able to use my platform to talk openly about my own mental health and by sharing our stories, we can all help to reduce the stigma associated with mental health,” she said. “I’m so thankful for my fans who share their own stories with me, and it means so much when I hear how they’ve reached out to someone for support and are now prioritizing their mental health needs. Currently, seven out of 10 Gen Zers experience common symptoms of depression, which is staggering. It goes to show that now, more than ever, we need brands, celebrities, government and mental health experts addressing mental health.”
