Runako Inside Out with Qyana Agina
by Tawanda GumboQyana: Things have been good for me over the past few months...I'm 6 months pregnant (!!), so I'm excited for this new chapter of my life. To be honest, the first few months of the pandemic was a nightmare. I didn't realize how much I enjoy being around people until we were forced to stay indoors. But now I'm in a better, more optimistic space and hopeful that this virus will be under control sometime next year so we can have some sort of normalcy back in our lives. -
Runako Inside Out with Lia Vialva
by Tawanda GumboLia: Honestly, the best thing I’ve done for my mental health during this time is be patient and gentle with myself. I was being super hard on myself after I lost my job but once I started looking at everything I have vs. what I didn't have, things started feeling better. -

Runako Inside Out with Kimberly Waldropt
by Tawanda GumboKimberly: I’m undergoing a tremendous amount of pain during this time. This pandemic has kept me from being able to travel in order to stay by my father's bedside as he suffered alone and not being able to attend my father's burial. Thanks to COVID-19. -
Runako Inside Out with Corinna Williams
by Tawanda GumboCorinna: All things considered, I am grateful to be doing well. I am healthy, heading into my third trimester of pregnancy. To be honest, maternal instincts are great at shifting focus to what REALLY counts: your personal and baby’s health and well-being. -
Runako Inside Out with Manseen Logan
by Tawanda GumboManseen: I'm alive and well, so I can't complain. Funny thing is, my quarantine life ain't that much different from my normal life. Not sure if that's good or bad, but it is what it is. -
Mental Health Hour
by Tawanda Gumbo“Mental Health Hour,” is the first activity I partake in every morning when I wake up. It’s simple I wake up, meditate, pray, write in my journal and then read a book. This is done before I even touch my phone, work out, check emails or get connected to the world. I feel I have to connect to myself first before I get connected to the world. Thus “Mental Health Hour” has become very important to my daily routine.
