The Golden Rhinos - A High-Performing Team for Mental Health
The challenges being faced by Black men in corporate America are not only confined to racial discrimination. They also have to deal with prejudice, a lack of support from their colleagues and managers, and practices that keep them from the executive suite.
Skip Spriggs, president and CEO of the Executive Leadership Council, states that "Study after study has shown that Black executives perform as well as or better than other executives but are not advanced to the highest levels."
There is nothing more frustrating than receiving no acknowledgment and recognition from top-tier authorities although you're performing your best. It is very easy for someone to feel isolated, depressed, and disappointed in this situation.
While your family is your main support system in this scenario, many times, they are also going through tough times. Having a community battling the same fight as yours is nothing less than a blessing.
Connections with Community
Being part of a community can have a massive positive impact on the mental health and emotional wellbeing of a person. Community involvement provides a sense of belonging and social connectedness that offer extra meaning and purpose to everyday life.
Feeling socially comfortable can reduce anxiety and feelings of depression and self-isolation. When you connect with different people, especially those who are also going through the same troubles as you, you feel confident that you're not alone.
Ways to Find Community
Being aware of your priorities is the first step towards finding a community of like-minded individuals.
But it's not as easy as it may sound.
Don't worry. I have got you covered with my 'Golden Rhinos' wellness gatherings.
