I am also a mental health advocate and one common benefit shared by my clients is reduced mental stress through physical exercise. That is why speaking out about mental health and helping to end the stigma is so important. Besides my specific work with the Indigenous people, I currently work within the health and wellness community and the crafting community." Through workshops and activities, we focused on topics such as sexual health, mental health, employment skills, financial literacy, art skills, and more. Mental health awareness already faces barriers related to stigma so you can imagine, intersecting a visibly transparent part of my lived experiences into my mental health was not easy to identify and accept.
