Summary
This week’s email hits deep. A wife writes in, asking for advice on how to encourage her husband to go to therapy to address childhood trauma. But he’s resistant—and it’s not just personal… it’s cultural. 🌍🧠
Glen & Yvette open up about the stigma around therapy in Caribbean communities and how that resistance can impact marriages, healing, and connection. 🇯🇲💬
They also get real about their own journey with therapy—what helped, what hurt, and how they’ve learned to show up for each other while doing the work.
If you’ve ever wrestled with therapy, felt stuck trying to support a partner, or wondered how your upbringing shapes your healing process—this one’s for you.
Tap in, listen close, and join the conversation. 👂🏾💭
