On today's episode I speak with Radhalisa Zarzuela and Deran Young. Radha and Deran met at a level one IFS training in Harlem, NY.

Radha shares her story with us which is touching and courageous. I felt inspired by her and think you will too.

We talk about 'rules' which may come from our cultures and the legacy burdens we carry.

We talk about "code switching" as a person of color.

We talk about the impact of domestic violence and the power of coming out of this with "trauma residue" and with a strong voice.

And we talk about being in the Miss America pageant (I bet you didn't think I was going to say that!). 

This may be the last in the minority mental health series for this month! I hope you have been encouraged and challenged.

Enjoy!
