Mental Health in Beauty Panel Discussion powered by The Powerhouse Pavilion
Being a beauty or barber entrepreneur is hard enough with all the rules, regulations, mandates, tax codes and now, with dealing with the effects of the pandemic. The stress beauty pros endure is enough to break anyone mentally. Mental illnesses can affect a person’s thinking, mood and behavior. It’s time we remove the stigma from mental illness by bringing awareness to this serious topic.

How do we take steps to improve wellness and mental health?
Join Justin Kace, a multi-award Beauty Industry Platform Artist, Educator and Military Veteran along with panelists, Monae Everett, Carl Littles and Thomas James, to discuss the many aspects of mental health, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, bipolar and anxiety.

The team will share:
  • Learn self-help techniques
  • How to support ourselves or those around us that struggle with mental illnesses
  • Motherhood, love, death, and racism
  • Mental health crisis in the Black community
  • How to combat stigma
  • Spot potential mental illness
  • Practice emotional wellness
  • Getting the best care possible in a system steeped in racial bias

Included free with your exhibit hall pass. Please register here.
