One thought on “Groundbreaking well-being app targets Black women’s stressors

  1. It is creative and courageous action like Ms. Mccarty, her husband, and others that support her endeavors take that inspires hope. Pandemic aside, the racial and economic injustices that continue in America are painful and demoralizing to say the least. It inspires great hope when someone takes action to help others like Ms. McCarty. I will pray that she stays healthy and sustained, and that her creativity and courage grows so that what she accomplishes is successful. And success in this case means that others lives are uplifted and improved because of what she accomplishes.
