Quote of the Day: “To anyone out there who’s hurting—it’s not a sign of weakness to ask for help. It’s a sign of strength.” - Barack Obama National Suicide Prevention Lifeline  1800273TALK Lady, have you ever felt like whenever you try to take two steps forward you get sent three steps back? At times it can feel really hopeless. Did you reach out for help? Was there someone or something that gave you hope? In today’s episode, Terri shares with us when she contemplated suicide and the obstacles she’s faced this year. On this journey in life, it’s okay to pull over on the side to pause, call for help, and keep your eye on your vision. Today the ladies help us build up our resilience muscle.  “You don’t know how strong you are until being strong is your only option." “If you can look up you can get up.” - Les Brown    Takeaways: Ask for help  Take mental health days  Keep your eyes on your vision    Resources: Melanin and Mental Health Therapy for Black Girls  Psychology Today Therapy for QPOC   Where to find us: Twitter: @HERspacepodcast Instagram: @herspacepodcast Facebook: @herspacepodcast Website: herspacepodcast.com Email: herspacepodcast@gmail.com H.E.R Space Sanctuary: https://www.facebook.com/groups/herspacesanctuary/    See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
