In this episode of White Label American wrapping up Pride Month, Raphael Harry engages in a conversation with Uche Chukwu - a Life Coach, Public Speaker, Igbo Philosopher, and the host of 'Let's Talk About Us with Uche'. The discussion first centers around their personal experiences with depression, therapy, and anti-immigrant sentiments. Later, they shift focus to Uche's passion for philosophy and his decision to leave healthcare to pursue it as a career. The conversation then delves into their complex relationships with their parents and Uche's time in the army, before moving on to his current beliefs about God. Finally, they speak about Uche's childhood and how it was split into two parts, and how it shaped his spiritual beliefs.
