Hi, My name is Kassandra. I am a licensed mental health counselor who loves to remind everyone that I am human above all else. I post gentle reminders for us to reflect on throughout the week. Most of my episodes are lessons that I took away during the week before or things that I heard that may have resonated with me that I would love to share with y'all. As a disclaimer, these episodes are not to be used for therapy and may not resonate with every one of you. If that's the case, that is okay- kindly nudge it away. Sending love and light your way,Sincerely,Kass
