Support for today's podcast comes from Helix. A few months ago, I shared that my husband and I

have been searching for our perfect mattress to no avail when serendipity afforded us

opportunity to try a Helix mattress. Well, it's been about three months now, and I am still

loving the sleep that I'm getting on this mattress. The thing I loved most about the ordering process

was that we were able to take a two-minute quiz that matched our body type and sleep preference

to the perfect mattress for us. Ordering was very easy and delivery was super fast.

If you're looking for an upgrade to the way you sleep, I'd definitely encourage you to check out

Helix for a mattress ship straight to your door with free no-contact delivery, completely free

returns, and a 100-night sleep trial. And just for y'all, Helix is offering up to $200 off all

mattress orders and two free pillows at helixleap.com slash therapy for black girls.

Just go to helixleap.com slash therapy for black girls, take their two-minute sleep quiz,

and they'll match you to a customized mattress that will give you the best sleep of your life.

Now let's get into the show.

Welcome to the Therapy for Black Girls podcast, a weekly conversation about mental health,

personal development, and all the small decisions we can make to become the best possible versions of ourselves.

I'm your host, Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, a licensed psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia.

While I hope you love listening to and learning from the podcast, it is not meant to be a substitute

for a relationship with a licensed mental health professional.

Hey y'all, thanks so much for joining me for session 163 of the Therapy for Black Girls podcast.

We're officially at the halfway point in the year, and July is always an important time as

it's the month that has been coined Minority Mental Health Awareness Month.
