Leave a 🤍 below to affirm! To close out Mental Health Awareness Month, we’ve partnered with , the number one family finance and safety app.

A lot of us carry financial stress, mental load, caregiving responsibilities, burnout, and uncertainty all at once, while still showing up for the people we love. That’s not a weakness to be overwhelmed by that; it’s deeply human.

You don’t have to do this all alone, love. You deserve support during seasons like this.

Greenlight was built for families. It takes a few things off your plate, so your family learns, earns, saves, and stays safe together. And you get a little of yourself back. One less thing to hold. A little more room to breathe.

Want to try it for your family? Use code TRYGREENLIGHT for 3 months of their Infinity plan.

Healing begins when you stop using pain as permission to hurt others. Your past may explain your wounds, but growth comes from taking responsibility for who you choose to become.

Healing sometimes starts with recognizing that what you survived wasn’t normal. Breaking cycles is powerful. 🤍

May is mental health awareness month and you may be asking what you can do to contribute to mental health awareness?

A few things you can do: check on your people, make mental health awareness posts and just be kind cause you never know what people are going through.

And now, Joshua’s Joy is giving you the opportunity to make an impact on the mental health of our youth. We have launched an initiative to provide mental health awareness wristbands for all Jr and senior high school students in Indianapolis and surrounding areas.

These wristbands are simple, but powerful. They serve as daily reminders that mental health matters, that it’s okay to ask for help, and that no one is alone.

Please consider making a tax-deductible donation at: https://joshuasjoy.org/support-our-students or https://gofund.me/efef0ea28

Every contribution—no matter the size—brings us closer to reaching students who may be struggling silently. Together, we can create a culture where mental health is talked about openly, treated with compassion, and supported before a crisis occurs.

Thank you for considering a donation to Joshua’s Joy. Your support helps turn loss into purpose and remembrance into hope.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month…

Women have spent decades shrinking themselves, silencing their struggles, and apologizing for simply having needs.

And it has to stop.

Your feelings are not too much. Your needs are not inconvenient. Your mental health is not a burden…it is a priority.

This month and every month after it — you are allowed to rest without guilt. You are allowed to cry without explanation. You are allowed to go to therapy and talk about it openly. You are allowed to say no without a novel-length excuse. You are allowed to put yourself first without feeling selfish.

You are allowed to heal. out loud, unapologetically, and on your own timeline.

Women over 40 have been carrying the weight of everyone else’s world for so long. This Mental Health Awareness Month, I’m asking you to put some of that weight down.

You have nothing to apologize for. Not one single thing.

Save this. Share it with a woman who needs to hear it today. 💚

xo, Ali

May is and here’s your reminder: mental health is just health. Your brain is part of your body.

You deserve the same care, the same patience, the same access to treatment without stigma, regardless of whether your symptoms are heart palpitations or anxious thoughts.

✨️Trauma is anything deeply distressing — your experiences are valid and healing is possible no matter the trauma .

✨️Common symptoms include anxiety, depression, flashbacks, hypervigilance, nightmares, numbness, trust issues, irritability, and sleep or appetite changes.

✨️Coping Strategies to try:
Grounding (5-4-3-2-1), deep breathing, journaling, trauma-focused therapy (EMDR), support groups, setting boundaries, taking social media breaks, getting enough sleep. exercise routines, mindfulness, talking to a therapist and or reaching out to crisis lines.

✨️You are not alone — prioritize safety, self-compassion, and small steps.

💜🩵 Save this post to revisit when you need grounding tools — and share it with someone who might need to hear they’re not alone.

Loving someone with schizophrenia...

It can be challenging, that is for sure.

But your love, support & understanding means more than you will ever know.
