Mental Health in Communities

-
Purpose & Value A lot of thoughts linger in our heads all day, whether they're about global warming or buying those pair pants that make your ass look REALLY bomb. There's more to your day than usual because of emotions. Anything that is brought up throughout your day makes you feel some way. Angry, aroused, upset, or curious- whatever it may be, do you think you're healthily moving forward from that thought+emotion with tools catered for you?  Our minds all function differently, therefore what can work for you will not always work for the next person.

I have goals and dreams, both of which cannot launch without me starting somewhere. So I chose to start here, on a blog. My purpose in life is to uplift and empower women. Never allow women to bring other women down, neve...
