8:39Now PlayingThroughout October, BNC is raising awareness to health issues plaguing the Black community through the "Be Well" initiative.
It's National Depression and Mental Health Screening Month. 16% of Black people in the United States have reported having a mental illness. Jay Barnett, a former pro-footballer who is now a licensed therapist, author and speaker, is one of them. After a personal experience contemplating suicide, he turned to therapy to heal from past traumas and pain. Now, he's helping Black men do the same. Barnett joins "Start Your Day" to discuss mental health and his mission to end the stigma against it.
