 What does healing look like when your culture tells you to keep pushing through? In this episode of The First Gems, we’re joined by Dr. Uche Ukuku—a psychologist specializing in trauma and mental wellness—to unpack mental health in first-gen communities. Together, we explore what it means to carry generational pressure, navigate stigma around therapy in Nigerian households, and prioritize your wellness without guilt. Dr. Uche shares practical insights on finding the right therapist, redefining strength to include vulnerability, and building systems of support—like her own Ada Group and the Talk Naija Therapy Fund—to make healing more accessible. Whether you’re at the beginning of your therapy journey or simply rethinking what mental health means to you, this episode offers community, clarity, and care. Learn more about your ad choices.
