Fatherhood, Conflict, and Mental Health in Crisis inside Cameroon
Manage episode 453426638 series 3602099
In this eye-opening episode, I speak with Cameroonian father of four NCHE Sam Tako, a mental health advocate and founder of FOMCAM who sheds light on the harsh realities of raising a family in a country torn apart by violence over French and English language divisions. Sam opens up about the impact of postpartum depression and poverty on mental health, the tireless effort to reduce the stigma, and the immense challenges of giving birth and raising children in an active conflict zone. We also explore Sam's passion for entrepreneurship, the importance of starting work young, and his ongoing fight for accessible education for all.
This is a candid look at resilience, hope, and the power of community amidst chaos.
