In this conversation, host Dr. Catherine Quinlan and special guest Dr. GiShawn Mance explore the intricate relationship between mental health, trauma, and community. They discuss the various forms of trauma, including systemic issues related to race and poverty, and how these experiences impact individuals differently. The dialogue emphasizes the importance of understanding trauma, the role of vulnerability in healing, and the necessity of community support in navigating mental health challenges. They also touch on coping strategies and the need for open conversations about mental health, particularly among marginalized groups.
