It's Just Therapy

After eight months of going to therapy myself, I've noticed a huge improvement in my mental stability. Mental health is often something so stigmatized that it's standing in the way of people getting the treatment they deserve. I invited my therapist Ashley Crisp to join me on today's show. We discuss ways to overcome these stigmas and different types of therapy. We also talk about Mark Manson's #1 New York Times Best Seller, "The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck," and the ways in which our positive culture are actually contributing to negative experiences.

It's Just My Individuality

I dedicate my first episode of "It's Just a Podcast" to late rapper, activist, and entrepreneur Nipsey Hussle. This episode is the ice breaker of "It's Just a Podcast" aiming to dispel stigmas'. Individuality to me, is the ability to set yourself apart from the crowd. That means showing up as fully and as authentically you as possible. For some, finding that sense of individuality takes time, hard-work, and dedication to personal growth. I had my friend Roger Meier join me on my first episode to talk about what being an individual means to him and how he found his individuality being mixed-raced in a predominantly white neighborhood.
