Host of the award-winning podcast, Therapy for Black Girls.

Therapy for Black Girls is an online space dedicated to encouraging the mental wellness of Black women and girls. So often the stigma surrounding mental health issues and therapy prevent Black women from taking the step of seeing a therapist. I developed the space to present mental health topics in a way that feels more accessible and relevant.

Healthy friendships take time and effort. Here are

Healthy friendships take time and effort. Here are three tips to nurture your sisterhood. 💖

1. Be each other's soft place to land: If not us, then who? Only Black women know what it means to be a Black woman. So while we try and navigate hard times, offer each other healthy self-compassion.

2. Share your story so that others feel safe to share theirs: Being honest and open can cultivate trust and strengthen bonds. Share your thoughts, feelings, and experiences so others feel free enough to do the same.

3. Assume the best intentions: We don't oftentimes realize how our assumptions affect how we interact with others. Remember that we rarely have a complete story. Each new piece of information can sometimes change our perception and challenge our assumptions. So let's give each other the benefit of the doubt.

Last month I had the opportunity to take part in @iheartmediaofficial’s inaugural AudioCon: Influencer Summit in NYC and @publicishealthmedia #PHMHealthFront. It was incredibly inspiring to be gathered among so many other amazing creatives to discuss the power of audio, and its role in elevating spaces & platforms like Therapy For Black Girls.

I am so grateful to our community who believe and support in TBG’s mission to make mental health resources more accessible for Black women and girls. You all make moments like this possible. 💛

Seeking therapy isn’t only for moments of crisis

Seeking therapy isn’t only for moments of crisis. Having a therapist you can speak to for everyday life challenges can be just as impactful. Unfortunately, stigma often keeps us, our loved ones and those in our communities from seeking the care we need. Thank you to @19thnews for inviting me to be a part of this important conversation on mental health and stigma, loneliness and community.
