What does well-being mean to you?
To me, well-being means the feeling of connection to your mind and body鈥檚 wants and needs. This means different things for different people, and I believe a framework of community support helps in creating a definition of well-being that leaves a lot of room for its complexity and the importance of our relationships to one another.
What drew you to becoming a Peer Health Educator?
I鈥檝e noticed that in a lot of ways the pandemic has changed the way students think about asking for help and feeling connected to their community鈥攖hrough peer health work, I hope to be able to attenuate some of this alienation and have conversations with 瓜子TV students about what kind of support they feel they need. I鈥檝e also previously worked with Planned Parenthood doing health education and upon transferring to 瓜子TV and finding out about this program, was interested in continuing this work. :)
What鈥檚 your favorite thing about 瓜子TV?
I love the campus and the intimacy of its closeness and how students at 瓜子TV are curious, interested people who care about the world.
