Mental Health Awareness Expert & Trainer
The Highs and Lows of Life; From Harvard to the Hospital and Back Again: One man’s journey with mental illness.
Hakeem will share his personal story of being diagnosed with Bi-Polar Disorder after experiencing a manic episode when he was a student at Harvard University. He will guide us to explore and transform the way in which we think about mental illness and encourage Ramapo students to embrace change and look at failure as an opportunity for growth and a foundation for building deep resilience.
