Can people of color find happiness, even when racism is so pervasive in our communities?
There is no doubt that racism has been the ugly part of our history as a nation, and that we black folks are still seeing the effects of the disenfranchisement even today. However, do we get a say on how we live our lives? Can we be happy, even when the deck is stacked against us? And how do we do that?
Today’s guest is Celeste Viciere, licensed mental health clinician, and mental health advocate, focusing on the black community, and how we can take control of our own destiny. She’s a bestselling author, and host of the Celeste, The Therapist podcast.
20 years ago, Celeste would not have seen herself talking on a platform about mental health and wellness. She thought depression was a white person’s disease. After all, she grew up in a black community where struggling through life was just par for the course. Then, through her work as a therapist, she discovered that we have a responsibility to ourselves, and our families to live the best life we can, from the inside out.
In this episode, Celeste recounts her own struggles as a black professional woman in America, and how she helps others find happiness, even in the most uncontrollable situations, by finding themselves.
Listen for the new ideas that are going to open your mind, to a brand new way, to look at your world, and start creating the happiness you've been looking for.
