Episode 2: No Crying in the Boardroom: Should you take a mental health day?

Welcome to the Confident podcast with me, Sheri West, and my fearless daughter, Olivia. Season 5 brings us more conversations with fierce female leaders. We’ll be tackling a range of career readiness and leadership topics ranging from defining your career purpose to leveraging your superpowers, and exploring key questions, like, is it okay to cry in the boardroom?

This International Women’s Day we are taking a mental health break with Mental Wellness Practitioner, Humanitarian, Author, Life Coach, Herbalist, Yogini and founder of Serenity For Mothers, Nyeesha D. Williams.

About Our Guest:

Nyeesha’s twenty years of experience in women’s health, clinical research, consulting, trauma release, and urban community risk mitigation shines through in her newest book titled, “Forgiveness: Overcome Emotional Trauma, Heal Relationships And Find Inner Peace In Just 8 Simple Steps”.
