Cheryl Carty & I open the first of the series conversations about Mental Health in celebration of raising awareness for Black History Month.

All views expressed are personal and do not reflect any companies we have/ currently work for.

We hope that by starting a dialogue on these subject matters will encourage others to start speaking and normalise mental health in our community. With Covid , Furlow and BLM movement there is a lot of anxiety and pressure for people of diversity and we acknowledge , understand and sympahtise . 

Mental Health is commonly misunderstood , we can re write the narrative and it starts with sharing our experiences in order to normalise the "un normal".

Trauma , Triggers and PTSD are common disorders which are often delayed in response. The sooner we address displacement the sooner we can start to heal .
