    The viewpoint of mental health has come a long way….or has it? In this episode of Living Single, Khadijah is going to see a therapist for the first time. We get to witness her apprehensions, how the people around her react to it, and what she gains from it.

  • Coming to America & Family Pressure: What Therapists Want You To Know

    Coming to America & Family Pressure: What Therapists Want You To Know
    Mar 16 2025

    What kind of pressure has your family put on you about how your life should look? Do you live with cultural expectations? Whether your parents are immigrants, rich, or just come from a humble background, we all have expectations put on us from our parents. In this episode, we are talking about the iconic movie Coming to America. We are discussing cultural and family expectations that can affect us and how we live. We also discuss things that we have learned and come to believe about ourselves and how it can affect how we show up in the world and our relationships. Of course, we always have questions that need answers. As usual, mental health in the black community is different. Join Charmaine and Jasmine, two licensed therapists, in this discussion.
