In this episode Mwai and I sat down with Manota Mphande who is a recovering addict. We were extremely blessed to have him share with us how his journey looked like then, and now. Probably the most insightful podcast we've recorded thus far. Hoping you can learn and be inspired by it as we were during the recording of this pod.

Over the years, the number of men succumbing to suicide has been 3 times higher than that of women. Men are least likely to seek mental health help and for the most part like to keep things to themselves. Society has convinced men that talking about your feelings and problems is "weak" and this is costing us heavily. In this podcast we try to normalize these conversations and shine a light on the problem that is toxic masculinity and also dig into finding out from a male perceptive why talking is hard. We also touched on GBV since it was recorded during 16 days of activism. I hope you enjoy this as much as we enjoyed recording it and learn from it while continuing to have these conversations in your various community settings and amongst your peers. Like promised in the podcast here are a few contact numbers where you can get mental health help. TOLL FREE - 0888952895/0996527882. CENTRAL REGION ST JOHN OF GOD 0992460253.

This is a continuation of the conversation with Mwai, who is a single mother. She shares on her parenting style and how she intentionally parents while also looking out for her mental health. So many gems and profound wisdom from this amazing mother of one. We definitely hope others can relate. Enjoy!

Motherhood is a beautiful thing. And because having children has been happening for a long time, we take for granted the challenges and stuggles that mothers go through. On this episode Mwai Wirima, who is a single mother talks about her journey as a mother and how she copes. We are hoping this episode will help other single mothers recognize that they aren't alone, their fears are legit and they should be able to talk about them.

10th September is World Suicide Prevention day. This year's theme is creating hope through action. It has been a rough 16+ months since the world got hit with the Covid Pandemic. Life has not been the same. There has been a significant rise in the number of people succumbing to suicide due to the Pandemic and just general Mental Health related challenges. In this podcast Mwai Wirima and Collina Nkhambule aim to address such issues and raise mental health awareness so as to prevent more suicides from happening by choosing to heal through vulnerability and dissecting growing pains.
