Her mental health suffered but her worries were met with shame and the all-encompassing question: But what will people say?

Now, with over 225k followers from around the world, Sahaj is on a mission to make mental health advice accessible for people from all cultures and, ultimately, help others free themselves from shame. There are sections on: - Generational trauma - Breaking down stigma - Celebrating cultural duality But What Will People Say? elegantly weaves together Sahaj's personal narrative with anecdotal analysis, and comprehensive research to create a revolutionary guide that will democratize and decolonize the way we think about our mental health. It is nothing short of a revolution. 'This book is a must read' Layla F. Saad, New York Times bestselling author of Me and White Supremacy
