May is Mental Health Awareness Month. This is your reminder that taking care of your mental health is essential, not selfish. Especially for moms, filling your cup is an act of love, not guilt. ❤ How are you filling your cup this month?

Inspired by Bebe M. Campbell, this month highlights mental health challenges in communities of color. The Maternal Mental Health Alliance notes, Black women are twice as likely to face MMH conditions but half as likely to get care. Let’s center BIPOC experiences 365.

September is Sexual Health Awareness Month! Sexual health is more than preventing infections, it’s about confidence, consent, communication, joy, and protection. Everyone deserves stigma-free, inclusive care and the freedom to embrace their sexuality. #eHumanRights #ConsentIsKey
