“And that was coming from like just years of focusing on work and not really getting to… I guess fully be present in my childhood and like maturing process and everything,” pagbabahagi ni Liza.
Pagpapatuloy niya, “So, I was dealing with a lot of things mentally and then I came across this company called ‘Mind You’ in the Philippines and they’re the first I would say Mental Health Service company in the Philippines.”
Dito nga niya nakumpara na sobrang late na ang Pilipinas at mga Pilipino sa kung paano intindihin at talakayin ang kahalagahan ng mental health.
“And unlike here in the States, we’re very I would say behind just in terms of like really understanding mental health and mental health issues and having like different areas to go to when you’re struggling.
“And so I partnered with that company and then I came out with a podcast in hopes of making it just more mainstream for people,” lahat pa ni Liza.
Sinabi rin niya na hindi rin kasi masyadong natatalakay sa bansa ang isyung ito.
Paliwanag ni Liza, “It’s a taboo topic because I think honestly it dates all the way back to like being colonized ’cause we were colonized for so long.”
Naibahagi rin ng dalaga ang paraan ng pagtanaw mg utang na loob ng mga Pilipino na tila hindi na nawawala at dapat tanawin mo panghabangbuhay.
Chika pa ni Liza, “And we have this like Filipino saying called like ‘utang na loob’ which means like you’re forever in debt to just be grateful for whatever it is that you have.
“And Filipinos always like to say we’re so resilient when it comes to facing challenges and whatever but it’s actually like we’re just people pleasers. We don’t like complaining. We don’t like talking about our hardships or anything.”
