TRIGGER WARNING: THIS EPISODE DISCUSSES TOPICS SUCH AS SUICIDE AND MENTAL HEALTH. LISTENER DISCRECTION IS ADVISED. 

Hello beautiful people! Welcome to The Single Black Female Podcast. This week we will be getting into Mental Health and Suicide Awareness. Everyone is going through it but everyone isn't equipped with the tools to cope or a group of friends to rely on in a time of need. Our goal today is to help you see how it affects all of us in America, warning signs and resources you can use to seek the help that you need. Grab a glass of Moscato or your favorite water bottle and catch up with me.
