Studio Talk: Real Conversations About Mental Health.

Grief and Mental Health. Season 1 Episode 8: Part 2.

In this episode, the co-hosts, Xiomara and Victoria, continue their discussion about grief and mental health. They get into details about what causes grief and the different ways in which different people experience the grieving process. In addition, they provide personal examples of their own experiences with grief and how it related to them from a cultural perspective. 

They encourage the listeners to provide feedback, comments as well as their opinions and experiences about their own grief experiences. The discussion offers resources and references for listeners to review and examine and listeners are encouraged to do their own research and draw their own conclusions about the issues discussed. As with most issues, there are good and bad found and the co-hosts recognize that as reality and have an honest conversation about it.
