20-01-2023 • 29 mins

There is a strong stigma attached to mental health issues in the African American community, one that has been passed down for generations and persists to this day. It can be difficult for many within the community to recognize or admit when they are facing mental health challenges due to fear of judgement, rejection, and not being taken seriously. Unfortunately, it is this fear that can keep individuals from seeking help or speaking out about their struggles.

On this podcast, we will discuss the real issues and challenges African Americans are facing with mental health and how to overcome them. We want to provide a platform for honest conversations, understanding and acceptance, so people feel comfortable enough to talk about their experiences with mental health. We hope to create a safe space for us to share our stories and learn from each other, while also providing resources, insights and advice to help listeners navigate the mental health landscape. Above all else, we hope this podcast will serve as a reminder that you are not alone in your journey with mental health.
