"Isn't it weird how one of the most vital questions in human history, becomes less of an actual question and more of a colloquialism?"
In our very first episode, I ask the seemingly simple question: "How are you?" This episode sets the stage for our journey together, examining why this crucial question often receives superficial answers, and what it means to truly listen and care. I'll touch on the societal norms that encourage surface level responses , how breaking this cycle can lead to more meaningful interactions and you shouldn't shy away from emotional honesty.

Stigmas? More like Stig-nahs!

"You are not lazy. You are not broken. You are not defective"
In this episode, I challenge outdated and harmful beliefs that society holds about mental health. I explore the different types of stigmas and discuss their immense impact on those struggling with mental health issues.

This episode isn’t just about highlighting problems—it’s about encouraging change. I touch on the importance of open conversations and how acknowledging and confronting stigmas can pave the way for a more inclusive and supportive society, as well as cover how self stigmas can be affecting us, maybe with out even being aware of it.
