Welcome back to the Mental Health Mukbang, a podcast by the Asian Mental Health Collective, where we try to make mental health easily digestible. This week we decided it would be helpful to go a little more into the details of what people can expect from therapy as a client. The original recording went a little longer that usual, so we decided to split this episode into two parts. We hope that its helpful for you and that you'll come back again next week for the conclusion of this episode.

Welcome to the Mental Health Mukbang, a podcast by the Asian Mental Health Collective. This week we're continuing the discussion on activism and what that looks like for Asian communities. We brought on a guest this week, Lisa Cheng, a Master of Social Work candidate at the University of Chicago, to help us navigate and explore what activism means and looks like. We continue to hope that our conversation helps to open the door for others to also start the conversation about how we can support BlackLivesMatter as well as ourselves and our communities. Next week will resume our exploration of food, Asian culture, and why we chose to use a mukbang as a way to talk about mental health.

Welcome to the Mental Health Mukbang, a videocast by the Asian Mental Health Collective. We decided to deviate from our previously planned episode and take time to address the aftermath of George Floyd's murder. We did our best to approach this topic with a sense of humility, hoping that our conversation helps to open the door for others to also start the conversation about how we can support BlackLivesMatter as well as ourselves and our communities. Join us next week as we continue to discuss and explore activism.
