JiVA Talks: Unfiltered

We were raised to be strong. To push through. To never let anyone see us struggle.3 out of 4 South Asians who need mental health support never get it. Not because we do not struggle. Because we were never given the space to say so.JiVA Talks: Unfiltered is a 4-part series airing every Sunday in May on Rukus Avenue Radio, iHeart Radio's Activate Your Listening platform. Hosted by Ektha Aggarwal, licensed psychotherapist and founder of JiVA Mental Health, and Huma Qureshi, psychiatrist and JiVA Impact Board Member, this series was built for every South Asian who has ever said "I am fine" and meant something completely different.Each week, we sit down with real people. Not professionals. Not perfect people. People who have survived something, built something, and chosen to stop carrying it alone. From loneliness and generational trauma to divorce, grief, identity, humor, and hope, these are the conversations our parents never got to have. We are having them now.This series is produced in partnership with Rukus Avenue Radio and Activate Your Listening in honor of Mental Health Awareness Month and AAPI Heritage Month.New episodes every Sunday at 10am, starting May 10.
