"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." - Martin Luther King Jr. On this #WorldMentalHealthDay, let's reimagine what mental health can truly mean for our communities. This powerful image from #Kenya in June 2024 challenges us to think differently. In the wake of tragic deaths of young Kenyans demanding justice, we see a profound moment of collective healing and resistance at Uhuru Park. This scene isn't what typically comes to mind when we think of "mental health interventions." Yet, it embodies a radical reimagining of wellbeing: 1. Community Resilience: Thousands gathered, finding strength in unity and shared purpose. 2. Cultural Healing: Music, dance, and communal celebration became powerful tools for processing collective trauma. 3. Active Engagement: Mental health not as passive treatment, but as active participation in creating a just society. 4. Holistic Wellbeing: Linking mental health directly to social justice and community action. 5. Joy as Resistance: Celebration not as denial of pain, but as a testament to the human spirit's capacity for resilience. This World Mental Health Day, let's expand our vision: How can we integrate community and culture into our mental health approaches globally? What if our "treatments" prioritized addressing societal injustices? How might our understanding of mental health shift if we focused on collective wellbeing? It's time to move beyond individualized diagnoses and medications. Let's reimagine mental health as a journey towards collective healing, social justice, and community empowerment. What does reimagining mental health mean to you? Share your thoughts! #WorldMentalHealthDay #ReimaginingMentalHealth #CommunityHealing #SocialJustice #HealingCenteredPeacebuilding
It's the final day of the Hearth Summit Thíes. We remember the Kenyan youth who gathered at Uhuru Park to claim Kenya as their home. The moment they screamed and sang, 'I'm coming home, home where I belong,' was a showstopper. It clearly showed how young people moved a step further, claiming space and decorating it as they saw fit. Dancing together was an affirmation of the possibilities that exist even within a trauma-organized society. This beautiful day was a reclamation of young people's collective voices—a strong declaration of making their collective voice heard. Kenyan youth showed us what is possible when different generations come together. ✊🏾 #HearthSummitThiès #HearthSummit #Tostan

::: I recently had the opportunity to serve as the Guest Speaker to teens, parents, and church leaders at @CGPkids @CogopkidsNigeria Teenagers’ Concert and Talent Show themed ‘Sing for Joy’ in Lagos. on the topic of “DISCOVERING AND LEVERAGING YOUR TALENTS FOR PROFESSIONAL SUCCESS.” Identifying yourself Key questions every intending successful individual must answer. The average human never answers these questions: 1 Who Am I? This is a question of self-identity 2 Where Am I From? This is a question of your heritage or source. 3 Why Am I Here? This is a question of purpose. 4 What Can I Do? This is a question of potential and capacities 5 Where Am I Going? This is a question of destiny or destination One of the key points I highlighted was the question “WHO AM I?” This question is about self-identity and serves as a reminder that each individual is a unique creation of God. Our true heritage is not determined by the village we come from, but rather by the inherent powers and authorities that God has bestowed upon us since the moment He breathed life into us and declared that we are made in His image. I shared a powerful illustration inspired by the Holy Spirit to demonstrate how generational blessings or curses work, and why everyone plays a role in either perpetuating or breaking a generational cycle. To avoid foundational errors, it’s important to deliberately equip, position, and empower ourselves for generational success through education and information. If we don’t seek out the right information now, we’ll pass down inaccurate or insubstantial assets to the next generation. #GodwinAkpan #DisruptiveBrandConsultant #PublicSpeaking #PurposeOverPleasure #cgpkids #Cogopkids :::

The story of the young people of the community of Isale Osun, Bere, Ibadan is proof that empowering youths within underpriviledged communities is definitely a tool to promote sustainable development and build a more sustainable future. There’s no better time to equip youths with the skills for employment, decent work and entrepreneurship than now and we are deeply committed to that cause at Chrysolite Foundation Empowering young people in underprivileged communities in Nigeria-Watch the story of Isale Osun https://lnkd.in/dW8eu5UD
