"Camagu. As a Life Coach myself I still pay a coach on a monthly basis to help me through my blind spots and to embrace my light. No where to hide in that space and no need to hide."
katlego5952 added:
"Thank you. I remember the other day I was late for my therapy session and told my Uber driver if he could hurry up as I was late for my therapy session. He said you must have too many problems to waste your money and time to see psychologist. I was shocked, the misconceptions of therapy in our black communities is too much."
