BBM Ep. 170: Mama’s Confession — I took a break for my mental health to heal my trauma

Blunt Blowin' Mama

I admitted a hard truth last year: I needed to put in real time to improve my mental health and heal my traumas. I knew I couldn't work at a high level by juggling Blunt Blowin' Mama and a full-time journalism job with a major media company while also working on my very fractured mental health. I mean I do enjoy feeling like superwoman. But naw, I just didn't have it in me to do it all anymore. So, I made the impossible decision to take a break from Blunt Blowin' Mama and use that time to work on my mental health. I get into that in more detail in the episode, but this is a good precursor for context and whatnot. I also discuss on this episode how running has helped me not only lose 20 lbs but also improve my mental health. But it was a struggle at first getting back at it. I had to really humble myself when it came to my body and how shocked it was to move again. I also talk about healing and releasing a lot of trauma that I had been holding onto for years. I've been doing deep healing work on my mental health and I'm ready to share. More to come, boo! So, get in your fave smoke spot, roll up, pack a bowl or whateva and sesh with me -- I missed y'all so much, feels good to be back :). The Blunt Blowin' Mama podcast is back BACK backBACK!!! I want to thank you again for listening and your support. P.S. y'all gonna love the new smoke break!
