In today's discussion, I delve into the topic of how culture shapes our perspectives on mental health, accompanied by my esteemed guest, Ms. Grace,
founder of 'Stitching the Mind.' Together, we explore the profound impact of cultural influences, as Grace shares her insightful views on how different
cultures often give rise to stigmas surrounding mental health. Our conversation revolves around the significance of acknowledging and understanding cultural
perspectives while evaluating mental well-being.
Drawing from her experiences traveling the world, Grace brings a unique lens to the conversation, encouraging us to reevaluate our preconceived notions. Her global adventures have allowed her to gain valuable insights, opening our minds to new perspectives and offering the potential for
transformative shifts in our understanding of mental health.
Please remember our thoughts are from an etic point of view and do not represent the true beliefs of the cultures from the various countries we discuss today.
