Andromeda Peters: Mental Health, Heritage & Miss Universe Ghana

She is Miss Universe Ghana, a licensed psychotherapist, a mental health advocate, a performer — and a woman whose story goes far beyond the crown. In this episode of Mostly Together, I sit down with Andromeda Osam-Peters, Miss Universe Ghana and founder of Your Mind Matters Global. Andromeda grew up Ghanaian American in Western Massachusetts, moving between cultures, identities, and expectations while learning what it meant to be seen fully. From Springfield and Easthampton to the global stage, her journey has been shaped by performance, pageantry, therapy, healing, heritage, and a deep commitment to helping others feel less alone. But Andromeda's story was never really just about beauty. It's about belonging. It's about becoming. It's about learning how to stop editing yourself and bring every part of who you are into the room.
