Social justice is essential to our collective liberation, mental health and healing…
Systems and environments have huge impact on our mental health! All of us as humans everyday interact with systems and environments that cause distress, trauma, and can make us feel isolated in our struggles. It is essential in our collective liberation to talk about it in order to learn and heal with each other. Join me and some special guests as we share our thoughts and personal stories on the problems with things in hopes of changing them. We cover topics like social justice, current events, the impact of policy, and mental health, and create plans of action to make a difference.

Join me and my amazing friend, Andrea Terres, as we discuss the problem with Florida’s Early Childhood Education System. Andrea used to be a preschool teacher in the state of Florida, has worked on early childhood social-emotional curriculum and media, is currently a community program coordinator in Tampa, Florida, and is the owner of Americana Creative Agency. At Americana Creative Agency Andrea provides creative services to small businesses that need a boost in the digital world. You can find her at www.americanacreativeagency.com. In this episode, we talk about Andrea’s lived experience on the front lines as a preschool teacher and the systematic issues and barriers that employees and families face while trying to navigate early childhood education. A huge component of how we can create change is to remain culturally responsive and safe (terms used by Shayla S. Dube RCSW, MSW Mental Health Consultant @langadecolonialhealing), listen directly to teachers and families about the needs and accessibility of services instead of directors, universities, or non-profits, and lastly, show appreciation to your preschool teachers (i.e. PAY THEM LIVEABLE WAGES!!!).
