Описание: 🎙️ Therapy On the Mic | The Power of Paying Healing Forward

Healing Through Reflection, Community & Intentional Living

In this powerful episode of Therapy On the Mic, host Patrice Stokes leads an honest and healing-centered conversation on the importance of reflection, self-care, and community wellness, especially during the challenging winter months.
