Episode 117: Sarah with Yo Soy Ella
Sarah Taylor was born and raised on the Southside of Chicago as a first generation American. In 2012, Sarah established Yo Soy Ella Inc., a nonprofit organization with the purpose of providing visibility to the importance of women’s mental wellness.
As the Founder and Executive Director, Sarah saw the necessity for women of color to seek health equity, feel connected and informed in the discussion of what has always been silenced, particularly within systematically marginalized communities of color, Mental Health.
As a mental wellness professional, Sarah strives to advance how communities of color normalize conversations of mental wellness while validating the need for care, treatment, safety, and accessibility. Providing a culturally competent support system that empowers women to reclaim their internal and external identities through mental and spiritual awareness is how this Afro-Latina Panamanian identifies as a change-maker, the one who tried to inform change.
