I'm Back: Finding Strength, Support & A New Purpose

from Healthy Illness · host Kelly Marie

Ep. 117 After six months away from the mic, I’m finally back. In this episode of Healthy Illness, I’m opening up about where I’ve been, what’s changed, and how my journey has led me to become a birth doula. I also reflect on the power of community, and how my support system—including JazzCast Pros and my closest friends—helped me navigate these challenging times. The weight of the election, the reality that America still isn’t ready for a woman President, and the painful cuts to programs that support Black and Brown communities hit me hard. I needed time to process, to heal, and to figure out my next steps. If you’re feeling the weight of the world, you’re not alone. Let’s talk about healing, resilience, and the importance of leaning on those who uplift us. 💛 Support Resources: 24/7 Crisis Support: 988 Lifeline Resource Finder: 211 Mentioned in this episode: Ep. 116 Coding AI for the Culture: Minista Jazz on Anxiety & Representation 🎙️ Hosted by Coach Kelly Marie, founder of Front Seat Life LLC 📲 Instagram @thefrontseatlife FB @thefrontseatlife, Email [email protected] 🎧 Produced & edited by JazzCast Pros 🔗 Click Here to rate & review on Apple Podcasts 🔐 Add this show to your collection on Pandora. 💪 Support the Show with a one-time donation on PayPal #MentalHealth #BlackMentalHealth #BirthDoula #Healing #Community #HealthyIllnessPodcast #WomensHistoryMonth #BetheLight Learn more about your ad choices.
