Show Notes
What does mental health look like when someone has lost everything?
In this inspiring episode of Why Not Me?, Tony Mantor sits down with Weanne Estrada, Mental Health Specialist with ADRA International (Adventist Development and Relief Agency), to explore the realities of humanitarian work in more than 120 countries around the world.
Together they discuss how mental health extends far beyond therapy, why culture matters in treatment, the resilience of refugees, and how communities recover after unimaginable loss. Wynne shares powerful stories from disaster zones, refugee camps, and conflict areas while offering hope through compassion, dignity, and human connection.
This conversation challenges common misconceptions about refugees, humanitarian aid, serious mental illness, and recovery while reminding us that every person deserves to be seen first as a human being.
