Model Minority Myth, Mental Health & Neurodiversity Stigma ft Mrinal
Mrinal Gokhale, author of Saaya Unveiled: South Asian Mental Health Spotlight, is an Indian-American writer and advocate from Milwaukee. Mrinal has done a lot of work within various minor communities, hoping to expand mental health awareness and destigmatize the issue. Today's chat, inspired by topics covered in her first book, explores the impacts critical parenting, academic pressure, model minority myth, religion, and gender roles have on mental health and its healing journey. We also discuss culturally competent therapists, neurodiversity, and men’s mental health through the South Asian lens. Mrinal is currently wrapping up on her second book, an extension of the real-life mental health stories of Saaya Unveiled. Grab your chai and ENJOY!
