In this episode, I am welcoming Dr. Alyssa Vang, a licensed psychologist and mental health advocate for the Hmong community. With over 20 years of clinical experience, Dr. Vang has worked extensively in trauma-focused therapy and early childhood mental health.

We dive deep into the difference between therapy and coaching, helping you determine which one best fits your current season of life. Dr. Vang also sheds light on how mental health impacts the daily habits of Hmong women and women of color, especially in the context of patriarchal systems and systemic racism.

If you struggle with stress eating, body image, snacking habits, or motivation to stay consistent, this episode offers valuable insights into how mental health influences these challenges—and how to navigate them. Tune in for an amazing conversation!
