Episode #24: A Conversation About Life Transitions and Mental Health

Where Have We Been?

In this episode host Xiomara A. Sosa and co-host Lisa A. Early discuss where they have been and life transitions for Xiomara that have kept them away as she focused on her own mental health. 

Xiomara gets into her own personal experiences that led her to take a pause as she deals with serious life transitions and tends to her own mental health. 

Xiomara gets a little personal about this topic and also encourages listeners to really pay attention to the life transitions that can impact their own mental health.

These experiences can cause significant challenges with your mental health whether it is work related or something that happens because of things going on in your personal life. 

Xiomara is open about her own experiences with recent life transitions and how it impacts her own mental health as well as how she takes care of herself during these life challenges in hope to educate and help anyone also experiencing the same.

Lisa provides her own perspective on the issue and gives an update about the recent launching of her private practice. Green Heart Counseling provides mental health therapy for individuals and couples. Please visit her website at https://www.greenheartcounseling.com/ to learn more about the great work she is doing!

We also have a special guest, JRoc, who is STudio Talk Podcast’s technical supervisor, a radio personality, and also has his hands in other projects around town.

In addition, they provide resources and references that listeners can refer to if they need to explore this topic further. They also encourage listeners to support loved ones or coworkers who are experiencing serious life transitions and are in need of some extra support during this time. They provide examples on how listeners can support others while appropriately maintaining their own boundaries and protecting their own mental health and wellbeing.
