Session 131: Living Well In Order to Die Well

<p>The Therapy for Black Girls Podcast is a weekly conversation with Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, a Licensed Psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia, about all things mental health, personal development, and all the small decisions we can make to become the best possible version of ourselves. </p> <p class="gmail-p1">This week I’m sharing a conversation I had with Ashley McGirt, a clinical social worker based in Seattle Washington, about living well based on her experiences as a hospice therapist. Ashley and I chatted about the kinds of concerns her clients discuss while in hospice, how family members of those in hospice can take care of themselves, the impact that race related stress is having on the mortality rate of Black people, and her tips for living a life without regret.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Resources Mentioned</strong></p> <p>Visit our <a href= "https://www.amazon.com/shop/therapy4bgirls" target="_blank" rel= "noopener" data-saferedirecturl= "https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.amazon.com/shop/therapy4bgirls&source=gmail&ust=1573099556861000&usg=AFQjCNHuGFrJo5JRIUz303IfhOrKMzr_Fw">Amazon Store</a> for all the books mentioned on the podcast!</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Where to Find Ashley</strong></p> <p><a href= "https://ashleymcgirt.com/">https://ashleymcgirt.com/</a></p> <p>Facebook: <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/mcgirtcounselingservices">@mcgirtcounselingservices</a></p> <p>Instagram: <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/therapywithash">@therapywithash</a></p> <p> </p> <p>If you're looking for a therapist in your area, check out the directory at <a href= "https://www.therapyforblackgirls.com/directory" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-saferedirecturl= "https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.therapyforblackgirls.com/directory&source=gmail&ust=1573099556861000&usg=AFQjCNGjdjr62EQj0a_UKUXRn2tfBOFd9Q">https://www.<wbr />therapyforblackgirls.com/<wbr />directory</a>.</p> <p>Take the info from the podcast to the next level by joining us in The Yellow Couch Collective, <a href= "https://therapyforblackgir
