The Importance of Speaking on Mental Health

Millennial Blueprint Podcast

In this episode of Across the Board Podcast, we discuss what mental health is, what it means to us, and why it’s so important to talk about it. The portrayal of mental health on social media is detailed and how it relates to the Black Lives Matter movement. The group shares how they’ve improved their mental health after experiencing trauma, the benefits and stigmas of therapy, and the societal expectations of black people, especially black women. Know someone with a mental health issue? Tune in to find out how you can be an ally for them.
