🗣️ It's Time to Talk! 💚

Today is Time to Talk Day, a day to open up, listen, and help break down the stigma surrounding mental health. 💬

Whether it’s a chat with a friend, a colleague, or even a stranger, just talking can make a huge difference. Mental health matters, and together we can create a world where no one has to suffer in silence.

Remember, it’s okay not to be okay, and it’s okay to ask for help. Let's make space for these important conversations, not just today, but every day.

💚 Reach out, listen, and let someone know you care. You never know how much it could mean.
