Windy City Demons - Episode 20

The group unpacks the events of the last three episodes (with some slight interruptions by July 4 fireworks.) Woke Mental Wellness Presents: Windy City Demons, A XII Inner Demons Actual Play and Mental Health Conversation.

We   are playing XII Inner Demons, a new TTRPG from Witch & Craft   Games.  Our game is set in a Chicago that is a few years in the future   after the pandemic. The game sees our group of 3 trying to save their   world from the coming Archdemon. Problem is that they only have 12   days...

Please be aware that this series will contain and discuss   heavy and possibly triggering content that includes: Strong Language,   Violence, Various Mental Health Symptoms, Abuse, and Abandonment.  Please  take care of yourself.

New episodes will be posted every Saturday. Support us on Patreon to see episodes early on Fridays: https://www.patreon.com/wokementalwellness

Cuyana   is a Black, queer, non-binary graduate of the Clinical Mental Health   Counseling program at Adler University and currently works in a private   practice setting as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor. In   addition to consulting work, conducting groups, and facilitating   workshops, they primarily work with individuals in the LGBTQ+  community,  BIPOC folks, and those who fall within those intersections.  Cuyana  hopes to continue to provide therapeutic space through a  liberatory  framework for folks who are often pushed to the margins of  society. They  enjoy anything that involves a good bike ride, listening  to late  90s/early 00s hip-hop and R&B that is apparently old school  now,  & coming up with alternative names for their 11 year old cat -  Ruth  Oprah Bader Ginsberg.
