On this episode of 60 Seconds with HLC, we talk about food insecurity and the emotional weight many families carry behind closed doors.
As summer approaches and children are home from school, many families experience increased stress around providing meals and meeting basic needs.
Food insecurity impacts mental health, emotional wellness, and family functioning more than people realize.
Support systems and accessible resources matter.
On this episode of 60 Seconds with HLC, Kendra Waddy, LMFTA, joins us to discuss the societal expectations placed on women to absorb emotional needs and the resulting stress and burnout.
Women and mothers are often expected to keep showing up, even when they are exhausted, and over time, that weight impacts mental health, relationships, and overall well-being.
