Growing up, I was taught to say that I was “ok” when I really wasn’t. Mental health just wasn’t something that anyone in my family or community talked about or even had access to. Yet pretty much everyone was affected by it.

Today, young people of color are disproportionately affected by mental health issues and are not getting the resources they need, and I want to change that.

  • A very REAL conversation

    I’ve only listened to the first episode so far but the experience was one of vulnerability. Real people existing where they are at in life and taking on some hard questions. It’s so brave to tackle personal issues in therapy and then to reach out to maybe plant the seed of healing in your brother. I’m looking forward to listening more. Thanks for sharing with us!

What an eye-opening, encouraging and beautiful podcast this is. If I could describe it as a metaphor, it really is a warm hug. An “it’s ok” in these crazy, hard-to-navigate times. I struggle with anxiety and depression and a family history of issues, yet listening to it feels like a breath of fresh air to be able to relate to the topics talked abou... more

  • Listener stories

    I appreciate Diana’s vulnerability and openness. I think it’s very brave to open up and use her platform to share listeners stories. It resonates with so many people and the fact that she takes accountability when she knows something wasn’t said or done correctly and does her best to fix it and be a better person is amazing. We can learn so much from Diana. I’ve always admired her bravery especially when I read her book, but this podcast shines a light on exactly how beautiful she is inside as m... more
