About this listen

Welcome to "Beyond Resilience" where we deep dive into the lives of women, non-binary, transgender, and gender nonconforming people in the Metro and Greater Atlanta area who exemplify resiliency by bouncing back and becoming greater- as they leap Beyond Resilience. Our goal is to provide the community of warriors supporting Athena's Warehouse with more information about our work. This podcast is our way of engaging with men who desire to be ally's in our work. We also want this podcast to provide personal & professional support to women who have “aged out” of our high school based program. About Athena's Warehouse: Our “Discover Your Inner” program brings students across various age groups, grades, and ethnicities together in a collaborative, healing space. Students work together to solve social issues through volunteering, advocacy and civic engagement initiatives. Student culture is uplifted and celebrated at every opportunity through music, poetry, free writing, and sharing meals together. Our space places healing at the forefront of every activity, when students have a space to heal together working on their needs as individuals they have a greater capacity for compassion towards the needs of others. Cross racial solidarity is not easily obtained through subtle interventions so our “Discover Your Inner Warrior” program is intentional in how we communicate this as a program goal to the students. Athena’s Warehouse will achieve our community development goals by reaching more youth with the emotional support they need, continuing to break barriers to accessing therapeutic intervention and providing a safe space for discussing issues they and the community are facing. https://www.athenaswarehouse.org/about-our-programsCopyright 2023 Athena's Warehouse Economics Management Management & Leadership Political Science Politics & Government Social Sciences

  • "Therapy for the rest of us" with Amenah Arman of Sane in the Membrane
    Mar 30 2023

    This week Dia is joined by therapist Amenah Arman. In 2019, Amenah Arman founded her private nontraditional therapy practice, Sane in the Membrane. A leader in narrative exposure therapy, she’s helped dozens of people of color and artists cultivate self-acceptance and identify what they need to thrive. Amenah received her MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and Bachelor of Art in Creative Writing from Georgia State University. Since 2019, Amenah has provided stellar mental health support services to the youth in our programs. We are so grateful to have had access to her services during the 2020 quarantine when youth needed her support the most.
