I met Kerim at an @afterwerk event, and he came on the podcast to talk about the Shame surrounding therapy and mental health.
We talked about the influence our social and cultural background has on how we view therapy and self-care. How hard it is to ask for help, gaslighting yourself. How important it is to have a good and healthy support system, our inner critic and Self Love. Crying and Anger. About grief and much more.

At the end we also give you some tips to find a therapist online or with the German health system and some Apps you can use as support until you find a therapist or if you are not ready to make this step yet.

Welcome! In this, I guess 1st Episode (that was supposed to be just introduction), I introduce myself, a bit where I come from, what my shame obstacles are and what I would like to talk about on the podcast.
It's a mishmash, where I end-up telling you about my first time and issues I may not have to face if only we would talk more openly about sex to young teenagers, and children, and anyone really.

I hope you enjoy it, and stay tuned for the first episode with guest coming on Friday 11. March 2022.

Much Love.
Valentine.

Disclaimer:
I am not a specialist, not an educator, not a therapist.
I can only speak from my own experience and share my stories, as will my guests.
The idea is not to bring THE TRUTH, I don't have it, and it's debatable whether it exists or not.

What I would like to do is offer an insight on every day people having a conversation and sharing their experience on topics that some may not have the opportunity to discuss with the people in their lives.
Or maybe offer another point of view on something by someone they/you, otherwise, would never have the opportunity to listen too.

In all this process, my intention is to handle every point of view and experience with kindness and respect.
If I make mistakes, I am sorry, and I will do my best to address them and learn.
But that's the point, of creating a space to make mistakes. Because there is no other way to learn
