While the team takes a well-deserved break, we decided it would be great to extract some of the key Mental Wellness Segments that were embedded in the main podcast before Mental Wellness Mondays became its own podcast. This week, we bring you a discussion of some of the mental health challenges unique to those living in the diaspora, featuring Dr Tinashe Goronga and regular guest Dr Nyarai Paweni.

Mental Wellness Mondays is brought to you by Bon Vie Medical. Click here for  more information about their packages and how they are supporting mental health
