Hey y'all.

Thanks so much for joining me for another episode of Therapy for Black Girls University.

We'll get right into our conversation afterward from our sponsors.

This is an I-Heart podcast.

Guaranteed human.

For this episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with singer, songwriter, and actress

Keanu Lade for a deeply honest and heartfelt conversation.

We talked about her journey with bipolar disorder,

how she's learned to navigate her diagnosis with compassion, and the ways therapy, boundaries,

and connection have supported her along the way. We also explored the emotional world of her

deluxe album, Cut the Ties, and the themes of self-love, closure, and transformation that run

throughout the project. She opened up about the creative process behind her music, the tenderness

required to tell the truth about her experiences, and what it means to heal while still

being in the public eye. If something resonates with you while enjoying our conversation,

please share it with us on social media using the hashtag TBG in session.

Here's our conversation.

Thank you so much for joining us today, Kiana.

Of course.

Thank you for having me.

I'm so excited.

Yeah.

So I love to start by hearing you talk a little bit about what do
