I'm Not Yelling! I'm Dominican: First-Generation Caribbeanites Navigating Life

Navigating Mental Health: A Holistic Approach to Healing with Eda Franco

Nachi + Damaris Season 2 Episode 4

In this episode, we challenge the societal belief that seeking help for mental health is a weakness. Joined by Eda Franco, our dear cousin and seasoned mental health expert, we flip that narrative on its head, asserting that prioritizing mental health is a strength. With Eda’s vast experience and wisdom, we offer a new perspective on mental health, viewing it as a spectrum that affects everyone, not just a condition for a select few. In this open-minded discussion, we explore the factors contributing to mental health challenges, including drug use, trauma, and even food ingredients. We emphasize the importance of treating the person as a whole—considering their social, mental, and spiritual well-being.

We also tackle the often-overlooked topic of generational mental health, encouraging you to break away from harmful patterns and prioritize your mental wellness. Tune in for an insightful and resource-rich conversation that reminds you why taking care of your mental health is essential.
