On a beautiful day at the New York Botanical Gardens, mental health advocates, professionals, and community members came together for a transformative experience at the Shining the Light on Mental Health Conference 2025. This powerful gathering was more than just a conference — it was a movement toward awareness, healing, and empowerment.
One of the most significant moments of the day was the ribbon-cutting ceremony celebrating the official launch of I AM A BETTER ME! Inc. — a milestone that marked the beginning of a new era in mental health advocacy and support.
The conference featured four impactful sessions, each addressing critical aspects of mental well-being:
With 12 dynamic panelists, attendees received expert insights, real-life tools, and heartfelt stories that sparked meaningful conversations and deep reflection. These thought leaders created a safe space to explore how mental health intersects with justice, spirituality, family, and personal growth.
Throughout the day, a common thread emerged: healing is possible when we shine a light on the shadows — together.
