EP 39: Therapy Changed My Life: A Deep Dive into Mental Health for Modern Women


Listen Later

**Mental health isn't just a trend—it’s survival.**  
In this *deeply honest and heart-opening* episode, we pull back the curtain on our personal mental health journeys—what healing has looked like, what therapy has taught us (or still scares us), and why so many women of color are still silently carrying emotional weight they were never meant to hold alone.

Raised in environments where therapy was taboo or nonexistent, we reflect on what it means to break generational cycles and finally ask for help. One of us shares how therapy became a lifeline during a toxic relationship. The other is still navigating what it means to be "therapy-curious"—hesitant, yet yearning for peace. Sound familiar?

We cover:
- How to find the *right* therapist (yes, it’s like dating!)  
- The difference between therapy, coaching, and other healing resources  
- Why seasonal depression is real and valid  
- How trauma bonding keeps us stuck in painful patterns  
- And most importantly—why prioritizing mental wellness is the *ultimate act of self-love*

Whether you’re starting your healing journey or deep in the work, this episode is your reminder:  
👉 You don’t have to do it alone.  
👉 Your peace is worth fighting for.  
👉 Healing is hard—but you’re allowed to begin.

**If you’ve ever asked, “Where do I even start?”—this is for you.**

🎧 *Watch now and take the first step toward reclaiming your mind, your heart, and your joy.*
