Welcome back to the Learnin’ with Lauren Podcast and Happy Black History Month! For the month of February, I’ll be highlighting Black woman who have pushed the mental health and wellness industry forward. Each Wednesday, I’ll be sharing the story of a Black woman I find inspiring with the hope that you do too! To begin the month, this podcast episode highlights Bebe Moore Campbell- advocate, author, teacher, and co-founder of NAMI Urban LA. Bebe left a legacy in Los Angeles and also on our nation. In 2008, Bebe’s efforts towards awareness for minority mental health were recognized by the passing of the bipartisan bill to recognize July as ‘Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Month.’ We must follow in her legacy and focus our efforts on advocating for better mental health resources in our communities.

I wanted to share on these topics relating to self-love and body acceptance because I think it is an integral part of our own personal wellness journeys. How we view ourselves can have a large effect on us psychologically and physically. On today’s episode, I share a bit about my growth in this area of wellness, touching on my racial identity, my transformative experience with scoliosis, weight stigma, and accepting my natural skin. I also discuss different methods to boost your own self-esteem. I hope that you all are kind to yourselves today and are able to find a couple things you love about yourself and are grateful for today!
