For some, experiencing/surviving a hurricane is worn as a badge of honor, for others, itโs a devastating reminder of the havoc hurricanes can wreak on a small island. From Hugo to Fiona, hurricanes have affected Caribbean peopleโs mental health in one way or the other. In this episode, we explore the impact that hurricanes have had on us and the different ways weโve learned to cope with hurricane season.
***NEW EPISODE ALERT ***
They may go by different names, "Strong Black Woman" or "Caribbean Superwoman", titles that elicit images of women who possess the capacity to withstand hardship. But the women that hold these titles face cultural expectations to display unshakeable resilience in the face of adversity, mastering a balancing act that has been historically held in high regard. But, at what cost? In this episode, we explore the Caribbean Superwoman schema, the influence of culture, we peel back some of the layers and, take a look behind the mask.

The podcast is finally HERE! And we're coming with a TWO-episode launch. Get to know us & let's take a deep dive into some of the nuances of Caribbean life as we carve out space to talk about all things mental health through a Caribbean lens.
Episode 1: We engage in a little Q&A session in this episode. We talk about everything from what we would do if we won the lottery to the things we love about Caribbean culture.
Episode 2: Have you ever heard of the term "collective trauma"? In this episode, we explore recent events that have rocked the US Virgin Islands, the ways we're deeply affected by those events and our day-to-day lives. And as always, we find a way to celebrate the beauty of Caribbean culture, even in challenging times.
