I am an avid #MentalHealthAwareness advocate and spoken word performer, and I love this so much. I travel the country trying to bring that awareness on stages, in classrooms, hospitals, and on my KZfaq channel, so I get excited when I see other advocates. 💙❤

I love this straightforward conversation. Talking about how you see your life. It is indeed hard when abuse, violence, addictions, poor mental health are the norm and to try and rise above somehow makes you isolated from your peers, friends, and family. Grief and loss and trauma need to be released from the body and mind and spirit. The relentless impact of racism and oppression needs to be part of the conversation. I love how Jordin expresses the importance "to be vulnerable" "to accept help". Indeed that is part of the challenge in a world that wants you to stand up, be tough, and put your past behind you. Huge respect and blessings for the integrity of this young man who helps bring home what is really important in LIFE. LIFE, PLEASE CHOOSE LIFE. Homes indeed should be the "safe haven" the sanctuary, the security that children need. It is an important conscious choice for human betterment.
