Ep7 Health prt2 - Mental Health and Wellbeing ft Mmakgabo Seopa at Aurum Institute Pop Inn Clinic

In this episode I visit the Aurum Institute Pop Inn Clinic at Loftus Shopping Center in Pretoria and have a chat to Mmakgabo Seopa about mental health challenges and options within the LGBTQ+ community. I was happy to hear that just like me when she favours CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) when counselling. Mmakgabo Seopa is a 29year old mother of one, who is ambitious, committed and a hardworking female. She has recently obtained her Bachelor of psychology degree from the Pearson Institute of Higher Education (now Known as Eduvos). She is a qualified Registered Counsellor through the Health Profession Council of South Africa (HPCSA) and currently employed at Youth Health Africa (YHA) as a psychosocial counsellor.

Ep6 LGBTQ+ Venues and Events part 2 - LGBTI Pride Pretoria ft Bruce Walker

After a bit of a break the podcast is back and in this episode I chat to Bruce Walker, founder and organizer of LGBTI Pride Pretoria. We talk about gay Pride in general as well as Pretoria Pride that will be held on 4 December 2021. All the details are available on the LGBTI Pride Pretoria Facebook page but here is some extra insight into some of the challenges and the purpose of Pride. I hope it will give you something to think about, act upon, and that Pride events will become a "party with a purpose" for you as well. It is also the first episode in which I have to use the "explicit language" tag. Hahaha.
