This week on the Couch, Crissle sits down with Dr. Rheeda Walker to talk about her book; The Unapologetic Guide to Black Mental Health, psychological fortitude, and the importance of understanding the value of who we are. They explore what it means to stay connected to your purpose, navigate life’s stressors, and become more intentional about what you allow to take up space in your mind.

They also discuss the unique pressures that impact the Black community, the importance of building mental resilience, and how we can better support ourselves and others without losing sight of our own well-being. Crissle and Dr. Rheeda Walker unpack what it looks like to protect your energy, strengthen your sense of self, and create healthier ways of moving through life.
