My guest is Roxanne Francis, the award-winning CEO of Francis psychotherapy and consulting services. She runs a busy group practice and is a keynote speaker, leadership coach, and corporate consultant who addresses topics related to women's issues, such as race and equity, mental health, parenting, and wellness at work. She is also the founder of The Therapist's Lounge, which helps private practice social workers and psychotherapists meet their needs for community wellness and business support.
In this episode, Roxanne and I discuss how to navigate life as a person of colour, how accent affects how we are viewed, and how we scan for safety. We also talk about how to navigate social media, especially for youths.
