Finding your Village: How a Nurturing Community Supports your Mental Health | Cultivating Sisterhood Gracefully

In this episode, our guest host, De'Sia, discusses the significance of nurturing a supportive community for mental health and the cultivation of sisterhood. De'Sia shares her journey and insights on building genuine, reciprocal relationships, emphasizing that not every woman will become a sister at first meet. She highlights the importance of allowing relationships to develop organically and gradually, rather than expecting instant connections. Through her personal experiences, De'Sia hopes to inspire listeners to embrace community and recognize the power of genuine sisterhood. This week’s Affirmation is: "I deserve genuine sisterhood and I welcome it with an open mind and heart."
