Breaking the Silence: Making Mental Health Visible and Treatable Inspired by Sonya Perry

In this episode of The After 50 Mic, we break the silence around mental health and explore why it’s time to treat it as a visible, treatable reality—not a taboo. Drawing on Sonya Perry’s sixteen years of advocacy, we uncover how challenging stigma, empowering through education, and building strong support systems can transform individuals, workplaces, and communities. Discover practical ways to start honest conversations, support those who are struggling, and create environments where healing and hope can flourish—especially for women of faith over fifty. Let’s make mental health a priority and bring light to every corner, one conversation at a time.
