Self Compassion Matters with Yasmin

Unsilent from NoStigmas

In this conversation, we get to know Yasmin, a passionate mental health advocate and a huge believer in the positive impact of self compassion. We dive into just this, self compassion and the power of self-kindness, as well as mental health stigmas she has seen in her Muslim community and tools to overcome them. Ultimately, she reminds us that advocacy in action can so often be just showing up exactly as we are. We thank Yasmin so much for talking with us and for shedding a light on these important areas of mental health advocacy.
