Today on The Light Inside, we delve into the intricate world of social stigmas and their impact on mental health.

Join us as we uncover how these stigmas can shape societal norms and influence our collective behaviors. We discuss the dual nature of social stigmas, both supporting high standards and promoting values while also perpetuating discrimination.

Guest Alexandra Miles from Project Blackbird sheds light on untangling the complex effects of stigmas on mental health.

Discover how understanding unitive ego theories, emotional competency, and social conflation can help break down these barriers.

Tune in to gain insights on overcoming stigmas and fostering a more inclusive perspective on mental health.
