July is Bebe Moore Campbell National BIPOC Mental Health Month. 💙 At Vibrant, we're honoring the women of color on our team leading the way in equity, healing, & community care. This week, Lula Haile shares how supportive spaces have shaped her mental health journey.

Mental Health Tip 💚 Set a daily "mental health check-in" reminder. Ask yourself: How am I feeling today, really? What do I need more or less of? What's one small thing I can do to care for myself today? Small check-ins can lead to big changes over time.

If you or someone you know has been impacted by the tragic flooding in Texas, you're not alone. Help is available. 💛 Call or text 1-800-985-5990 to connect with a trained, caring counselor. @distressline is here for you 24/7 to provide emotional support. bit.ly/4aZcjWB
