Thank you so much to @msarybaby for inviting me to speak at the 5th Annual Mental Health Awareness Fair.
Not only was I provided the opportunity to share that Iโm a #narcsurvivor, I also got to share a small piece about what my journey as a #minorityslp was like and how that impacted my mental health.
When pursuing higher education as a minority becomes about survival and not learning, we learn to build our own tables. Our own chairs. We invite our own guests, and we have the opportunity to change the narrative.
Changing the narrative should not always have to fall on our shoulders. But when it does, itโs important to prioritize your physical AND mental health. We canโt be anything for our communities if we canโt be anything for ourselves first๐ค๐ค
