Unfiltered Conversations on Mental Health.
Hosted by Tanisha Sanders
Chair Time with T – Real Talk on Mental Health
Honest Conversations. Real Impact.
A weekly podcast exploring how mental health shapes our lives and relationships. Through raw, honest conversations with professionals, everyday people, and listeners, we dismantle stigma and spark meaningful dialogue. As a therapist and social worker with 20+ years of experience, I bring expertise, but here, I’m not your therapist. I’m your guide through the messy, necessary conversations we all need to have. From therapy done right to life’s emotional challenges, Chair Time with T is a space to learn, reflect, and grow.
🎙️ New episodes drop every Tuesday. Tune in wherever you get your podcasts!
