EP 50 "Black Women, Depression and Caring for Your Mental Health"
It's Mental Health Awareness Month! In this episode, I unpack a recent study that discussed how depression shows up for Black women. This topic hits close to home because I went through a depressive episode years ago, and my symptoms didn't align with what I thought depression was. Somehow, I got through it, but my goal is to help provide Black women the awareness they need to understand that their experiences are valid. You deserve care and to be healthy! I also give you three tips to start caring for your mental health!

Hidden gem in the podcast space!!
This is a great podcast. The host is incredible, and she focuses on topics that hit the hearts of black women.
What everyone is thinking!
This podcast is titled perfectly, thank you for the variety of topics which seem taboo in our black/brown culture but must be addressed for us to grow into the individuals we are meant to be! The meditation at the end is a bonus! Thanks Amanda P. !
