Today you’re going to learn EXACTLY how you can overcome challenges in your mental health.
In fact, in this video, you will hear author and speaker Vikie Shanks share some of her own personal story with mental health along with how she was able to overcome obstacles that life brought her way.
Here’s a quick overview of what’s in the video:
Vikie has been through many trials throughout her life. She was sexually abused as a child, lost her mother at sixteen years old, suffered a mental breakdown at nineteen, had a husband who struggled with mental health and eventually committed suicide, and has helped her seven children cope with struggles from cerebral palsy and autism to eating disorders and depression.
Yet she has remained optimistic through it all. Her ability to overcome adversity makes her an inspiration we can all learn from. Sometimes when overcoming challenges we have to focus on one minute at a time. One of the tips that Vikie explains during our conversation is the importance of finding the thing or person that is your motivation to keep going.
She draws from her own experience to empathize with others in their trials. She also offers up some sound advice throughout our conversation that’s beneficial for anyone in the midst of a mental health struggle. And having been on both sides – being through trials and helping others through them – she has some wise words about being honest with those who are supporting you, both when you are doing well and when you aren’t.
In short, this video will show you actionable ways to overcome challenges in 2019.

Prostate Cancer: The Prostate Exam Stigma Among Men Of Color
In this informative video, patient advocate Mike Veny sits down with Tyrone Brewer, President of US Oncology for Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine division, to discuss the crucial issue of prostate cancer among men of color. Together, they delve into important topics such as the stigma surrounding prostate cancer among men of color, mental health implications for cancer patients, and the significance of health literacy among men of color.
Tyrone also shares his experience working with Shannon Sharpe, a well-known public figure who battled prostate cancer and kept his diagnosis private. Additionally, they stress the importance of regular prostate exams, which can greatly reduce the likelihood of prostate cancer becoming terminal. This conversation is especially relevant as Mike Veny and Tyrone Brewer participated in the 2024 Blue Jacket Fashion Show for Zero Prostate Cancer, sponsored by Johnson & Johnson. Don’t miss this eye-opening discussion about prostate cancer and overall health among men of color.
NOTE: Tyrone Brewer is walking the runway at the Blue Jacket Fashion Show, and Mike Veny was an attendee.
Mike Veny understands stigma well, especially the mental health stigma in the black community. He hopes that men who want to prevent prostate cancer watch this video and schedule a prostate exam.
