Serena Williams will be a part of the Verizon “Rest Your Mindset” event which seeks to create much-needed awareness on mental health in these arduous times. While the physical toll of coronavirus is out there and visible, people often ignore the mental hazards of the crisis.

Serena will start the series on May 20 with Big Little Lies star Shailene Woodley and Big Bang Theory star Mayim Bialik. On May 27th, Shark Tank star and Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban will be on the show to talk about the importance of wellness in the workplace. Let’s find out what exactly the show will be about when it airs in its entirety.
