We work out, we eat healthy, we go to the doctor when we don’t feel well. Why don’t we treat our minds and hearts with the same level of care? Why is mental health still not prioritized, especially amongst Asians, and why is there ANY negative stigma at all towards one of the BEST THINGS YOU CAN EVER DO FOR YOURSELF?

Therapy – No Shame, All Gain.

If listening to amazing mental help therapist Diana in this episode doesn’t make you realize how AMAZING therapists can be, this podcast host will shave her head.
