Like many children of immigrants, she has often found herself plagued by questions: Can I establish my own values \u003ci\u003eand \u003c\/i\u003eembrace where I come from? Is prioritizing my mental health really rejecting my culture? How do I set boundaries and care for myself when family and community mean everything? Even after becoming a therapist herself, she saw those same gaps in the mental health world, leading her to wonder, like so many children of immigrants: what about us? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhile conversations around mental health are becoming increasingly open, our models remain largely Eurocentric and focused on individuality. Sahaj has sought to challenge these long-held models, using deep personal reflection, therapy, community building, and a whole lot of trial and error, eventually navigating her own way to understanding and acceptance. Here, she shows us how to get there, all the while reminding us that personal healing is inextricably connected to collective healing. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eBut What Will People Say?\u003c\/i\u003e elegantly weaves together personal narrative, anecdotal analysis, and comprehensive research. Sahaj offers advice and tools for everything from navigating generational trauma, guilt, and boundaries, to breaking down stigmas around therapy and celebrating cultural duality. Democratizing and decolonizing the way we think about mental health and self-help, Sahaj's incredible work is nothing short of a revolution.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSahaj Kaur Kohli, MaEd, LGPC, \u003c\/b\u003e is the founder of Brown Girl Therapy (@BrownGirlTherapy), the first and largest mental health and wellness community organization for adult children of immigrants; a licensed therapist; and a columnist for the \u003ci\u003eWashington Post\u003c\/i\u003e's advice column \"Ask Sahaj.\" Sahaj's words and work have been featured in \u003ci\u003eToday\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eGood Morning America\u003c\/i\u003e, CNN, TED, \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHuffPost\u003c\/i\u003e, and more.
