This episode of Creatively Shaded centers Mental Health Awareness Month. Phaedra, ShawnJ and Liz, lay their burdens down on the couch of licensed psychologist and multi-hyphenate artist, Dr. Jacqueline Benson. They discuss navigating the creative path of Black Artists, unwarranted trolling, and if your boo-boo's butt should be in that theatre seat. Just because The Divas are on the couch doesn't mean that Into The Shade & Center Stage Shade wasn't popping. Ba-by! It's time for you and your crew to take a turn, cause the Doctor is Definitely in Session! Take Notes!
