S3E8: Grieving as Desi-Americans with Meenakshi Krishna Brown Taboo Project

In this episode, we have the privilege of speaking with Meenakshi Krishna, Founder and CEO of My Mantra Wellness (mymantrawellness.com), on the topic of grief. We dive into Meenakshi's own personal story, as well as how she navigated the grief process as a Desi-American. We dive into cultural competency (or lack thereof) in therapy, where she was able to find help for herself, and how her journey led to her founding My Mantra Wellness to help get people culturally-sensitive and community-based therapy and support.
