You don’t need therapy, you need prayers.” “It’s not depression, it’s demons.”
Sound familiar?
In this powerful, unfiltered episode of That’s What She Said, we’re holding a mirror to the cultural silence and shame around mental health. We’re unpacking the emotional trauma passed down through generations, the pressure to always be “the strong one,” and how religion is often used to replace — instead of support — real healing.
We’re talking toxic family dynamics, emotional labor, spiritual gaslighting, and why so many African girls are suffering in silence.
