Mental Health/illness is not something we openly discuss in our Malawian society. But it is real and it is killing us. I believe vulnerability is key to healing. This podcast openly discusses Mental health and tries to openly create awareness while sharing my journey as someone who suffers from a mental health illness. I hope this can inspire you and remind you that you are not alone and give you the hope you need to forge ahead. Enjoy!
