Beyond the Box
Where we aim to challenge stigma and dispel myths and misconceptions surrounding mental health. Where we advocate for safe and affordable housing, educate and inform our communities about resources that are available, and expand our thinking to explore the world from a new perspective.
Our podcast represents all of us that color outside the lines and strive to escape the restraints that society places on us, and we seek to open a dialogue for conversations that need to be had and raise awareness for issues that need to be addressed. We each have our own unique blend of physical, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual components, and none of us fit neatly into any box.
Join us as we explore the grey area Beyond the Box.
