From The Podcast
Mind Ya Mama
Mind Ya Mama is currently a periodic podcast with new EP's about once a month, focusing on conversations regarding the structure that has been stigma with Mental health. As a black woman in a very white space, I have and will forever have my fair share of Mental health in this world. -I've endured years of feeling shamed and embarrassed about something that I cannot control. So, I decided to take this bull by its horns and ride it freely, while figuring out why there has been this idea of Mental health being a race based! I've spent the end of my 20's and beginning of my 30's educating myself to the max on my own Mental health Illness while also helping those around me understand specifically how it affects me day to day but also that not everyone is the same. Though the discussion around Mental health has become a normalized topic in today's world there still lacks an ignorance as well as a representation and vulnerability from not just people of color but WOMEN OF COLOR to openly speak out about their own with others. Together i know we are going to forever change the stigma and false representation of Mental health/wellness within our own communities of color. Episodes will range in topics that may feel personally relatable to whether previous or currently though nonetheless routed in false narratives.I will have amazing guest join me to discuss not only their personal experiences with mental health within their communities, careers, relationships and medical standpoints. All the while building a community to change what has been falsely presented to us throughout generations on what Mental health is and who it is for. Topics Will include Why is mental health so Taboo, Mental health labeled for white people, healthcare rooted in racism of stressed, praying it away, etc.Though anyone can relate on so many levels to the conversational topics we will have... I've created this space for all Women of color from different racial backgrounds. Get ready to laugh, cry, feel all the feels while relating to women around the globe and know you're not alone and it is all okay to feel each and every emotional way without shame! We are all here to learn grow and teach with love and kindness involved. MAKE SURE TO LIKE/ FOLLOW / SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST!
