Gems For Your Soul

Slippin', fallin'....I have to get up


Listen Later

In this episode I share my experience with suicide and my struggle with mental health.  I have been dealing with depression for several years and thankfully I am at a place in my life where I have experienced healing and success thanks to the support of professionals who have partnered with me.  Earlier this week, the news of Stephen 'tWitch' Boss's passing put into focus mental health in the Black community.   In this episode I am careful to focus on telling my story only.
