Last week I had the opportunity to be on Good Day Maryland and it was a wonderful experience.

Talking about mental health and being a contribution in this space brings me great fulfillment and gives me a way to honor my mother. As with anything that requires change, we must be relentless in causing these conversations that matter. Initiating a dialogue around mental wellbeing can make all the difference for someone. And, simply asking “are you ok” can also make all the difference. We just never know what people around us are dealing with.

When we are courageous to engage in a conversation around mental health, we get to demonstrate just how easy it is to do so and it will naturally encourage others to do the same for their loved ones as well. And that is how we can all create a ripple effect.
