We continue our #UMatter theme with the intuitively insightful Charla Yearwood, Founder & Clinical Director of Connected in Community. Charla’s practice mission is to provide inclusive therapy, coaching, and education services confronting oppressive societal norms for community liberation.

Last week, Denise shared how the pressures of being an entrepreneur significantly impact your mental health. Oftentimes, people don’t think about how things like your profession, school, family and even basic lifestyle choices can affect your mind, but they do. That being said, sometimes your surroundings aren’t the cause. Sometimes it comes down to a chemical imbalance that makes you feel things you can’t explain.

Our first highlighted Friday Feature of our #UMatter theme is the Honorable Geoffrey A. Gaither, who currently serves as the Presiding Judge of the Marion County Family Division courtroom.
