🟣 World Maternal Mental Health Day | May 7

 


On World Maternal Mental Health Day, it is important to recognise that the mental health of mothers plays a significant role in the overall well-being of communities. Efforts to promote mental health awareness should include a focus on mothers globally.

As a communications specialist and an executive in the fields of public relations and sustainability, I acknowledge the significant influence of maternal mental health on families, workplaces, and society at large. We must prioritise the support of mothers' mental well-being in our efforts to cultivate resilient communities and sustainable systems.

It is important to continue raising awareness about maternal mental health and to normalize discussions surrounding this issue. Advocating for the necessary resources can help ensure that every mother has access to the emotional, social, and economic support she deserves. By addressing these needs, we can foster a healthier environment for mothers and their families.

Healthy mothers are foundational to strong nations. Let us stand in solidarity with them today and every day.

GRACE IN THE SHADOWS: THE UNTOLD JOURNEY OF AMULO BEATRICE

Image
"Though my journey began with 15 aggregates and a 5-kilometre walk to a distant exam centre, it taught me that resilience matters more than results—and that true success is forged in the fire of adversity." G rowing up in a small village called ‘Ocokican’- a cultural Kumam name that means collecting poverty—did not blur my success. It only ignited the power of resilience and determination in achieving beyond my boundaries. Being a fourth daughter of 10 children (6 girls and 4 boys), of a farmer (mother) and a businessman and preacher of the Gospel (father), life seemed lovely while my dad could cater for us all, but I never saw his opportunity since I started understanding. It was only my mother taking care of us back at home the entire time; my dad only visited. I completed my Primary Leaving Examinations (PLE) at Ockican Primary School, achieving a score of 15 aggregates (Division 11). Although these grades were not what I had hoped for, I believe the challenging learning...
