It’s Mental Health Awareness Month and this episode I talked to TaKeesha White, Licensed Therapist and Master Life Coach and  friend in real life.   We talk about her at-home birth during this pandemic, as TaKeesha welcomed her twins, rounding her family out to three. Therapy, specifically within the black community has such a stigma associated with it.  If you’ve ever resisted the thought of therapy, know your thoughts and fears aren’t unwarranted.   TaKeesha provides insight to the possible root of those fears, and the work that so many have and continue to do in shifting the paradigm; which is why we want you to Rethink Therapy.  Rethink Therapy: Visit https://www.takeeshawhite.com/ to get a consultation and to sign up for her TEA Time  Devotional which supports you with working through your Thoughts Emotions and Actions.
