Summary
On this week’s episode of *Well-Kept Wednesday*, your favorite homegirl Koereyelle is back, and we're diving deep into the connection between mental and physical wellness. I know we always talk about wealth and multiple streams of income, but let’s keep it real—if you don’t have multiple streams of happiness and joy, what’s the point? So many of us are struggling with stress-related illnesses, and it’s time to change that conversation.
I’ll share some personal gems about how wellness, not just wealth, should be the priority, and why our mental health isn’t separate from how we feel physically. Plus, I’ve got a mind-blowing chat about how massage can be used medicinally to detect energy blockages in the body—and yes, I’m even breaking down what happened during my recent reflexology session that totally blew my mind.
If you’re a wellness warrior, or just trying to keep it all together, this episode is for you! Tune in and get ready for some conscious conversations, because it’s time we focus on living *well*, sis!

| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to Well Kept Wednesday. It's your favorite homegirl Coriol. And as you know, |
| 0:08.4 | Well Kept Wednesday is my opportunity to use this YouTube platform as a safe space to share wellness |
| 0:16.0 | resources for women who truly want to do well and be well. |
| 0:21.8 | I know a lot of emphasis over the last few years, |
| 0:24.9 | and even on my part, |
| 0:25.9 | has been on building wealth, |
| 0:27.8 | having multiple streams of income. |
| 0:29.8 | But if we don't have multiple streams of happiness, |
| 0:33.6 | if we cannot tap into multiple streams of joy, |
| 0:37.0 | then what's the point of making all that money |
| 0:39.6 | if we are not going to, you know, be well enough to enjoy it? There is research that says that |
| 0:47.0 | something like 60% of black women are experiencing depression and only 12% of us are actually seeking help. |
| 0:56.3 | Now, there's lots of reasons why we might not be seeking the help that we need from |
| 1:01.0 | the fact that, you know, a lot of times when we do speak up, when we do start to share, |
| 1:06.1 | we are shunned. |
| 1:07.6 | A lot of us are too prideful to ask for help. |
| 1:10.7 | We were raised to be strong black women, and we feel like we can handle it all. And if we are not handling it all and handling it well, then we're doing something wrong. Some of us grew up in households where mental health was not a part of the conversation. And if you even mentioned therapy or try to tap into |
| 1:29.9 | your emotions, people call you sensitive. They might have called you crazy. We are just now starting |
| 1:35.2 | to evolve as a community. And then there are some black women who truly cannot afford. They |
| 1:41.3 | don't have the time or the money, the resources to be able to afford |
