    Understanding Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD): From the Inside Out

    In this deeply personal episode of The Boakyewaa Glover Show, I publicly discuss my diagnosis of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and share what living with this highly misunderstood condition is really like.BPD is often described online using words such as manipulative, toxic, dramatic, unstable, or dangerous. But those labels tell only a fraction of the story—and often miss the humanity of the people living with this condition.In this episode, I discuss:• What Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is• The connection between BPD and trauma• Quiet or high-functioning BPD• Emotional intensity, rejection sensitivity, and fear of abandonment• The impact of heartbreak on individuals with BPD• Shame, self-worth, and emotional regulation• Why compassion matters more than stigma• My own journey of healing through therapy, mindfulness, medication, and self-awarenessThis episode is not intended to excuse harmful behavior. It is intended to create understanding, empathy, and a more nuanced conversation about one of the most stigmatized mental health conditions in the world.Whether you live with BPD, love someone who does, work in mental health, or simply want to better understand the human experience behind mental illness, I hope this conversation offers insight and hope.If this episode resonates with you, please like, comment, subscribe, and share.#BorderlinePersonalityDisorder #BPD #MentalHealth #Trauma #ComplexPTSD #ChronicDepression #MentalHealthAwareness #TheBoakyewaaGloverShow

    Hormones, Obesity & Medical Weight Loss | The Science Behind Weight Struggles

    For far too long, obesity has been treated as a personal failure instead of what science increasingly recognizes it to be: a complex chronic medical condition influenced by hormones, metabolism, genetics, stress, mental health, and biology.In this episode of The Boakyewaa Glover Show, I sit down with two incredible medical experts:• Prof. Josephine Akpalu — Endocrinologist & Diabetologist• Dr. Abigail Donkor — Pharmacist & Medical Weight Loss SpecialistTogether, we unpack:• the hormonal science behind weight gain• insulin, cortisol, estrogen, leptin & metabolism• menopause, stress & chronic dieting• the stigma and emotional toll of obesity• GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy & Mounjaro• myths, side effects & realistic expectations• and what a compassionate, science-based approach to weight management should actually look likeThis is one of the most important conversations I’ve had on the show because obesity is not simply about discipline or motivation. It is deeply connected to biology, access, mental health, and long-term care.#Obesity #Hormones #MedicalWeightLoss #MentalHealthAwareness #Wellness

    Indie, Not Inferior - Readings from My Self Published Books

    In this intimate and reflective episode of The Boakyewaa Glover Show, I take a moment to honour a part of my story I haven’t spoken much about this season — my journey as a writer and self-published author.I read excerpts from my books, including Anatomy of a Breakup and Love You More, both written during a deeply emotional chapter of my life. Anatomy is a raw collection of my actual conversations with ChatGPT as I tried to survive heartbreak, while Love You More was a heartfelt birthday gift I gave to someone I loved — just months before a painful breakup.These books represent both my vulnerability and my strength. I am no longer the woman who wrote them. I am healing. I am growing. And I remain incredibly proud of this body of work — each one a reflection of my truth, resilience, and voice.Whether you’re a reader, writer, or creative spirit, I invite you to join me in this episode as we talk about self-publishing, storytelling, and reclaiming your narrative — independently, unapologetically, and powerfully.📚 Books featured:– Anatomy of a Breakup– Love You More– Commitment– Tendai– The Justice– Circles👀 Watch.

  8. Living with Chronic Depression

    Living with Chronic Depression

    In this deeply personal episode, I open up about my diagnosis of Persistent Depressive Disorder (PDD)—also known as chronic depression or dysthymia.It’s not just about feeling sad. It’s a quiet, enduring struggle that I carry while still functioning at a high level. I go to work. I parent. I create. I perform. But inside, I’m often barely holding it together.Mental illness doesn’t always look like what you think. You won’t always see it. But it’s there—masked behind smiles, productivity, and strength.And that’s exactly why I’m telling this story. Because so many of us are suffering in silence, dismissed because we’re “too functional” to be struggling.Let’s break the silence. Let’s change the face of mental illness.🧠 Watch. Share. Be kind.#TheBoakyewaaGloverShow #LivingWithChronicDepression #PersistentDepressiveDisorder #HighFunctioningDepression #MentalHealthAwareness #BlackMentalHealth
