My Mind, My Body, My Journey™ 

My Mind, My Body, My Journey was created by Monica Mitchell a holistic health professional to support maternal child and infant health outcomes. Monica has worked as a licensed mental health professional since 2012 in a variety of settings. Monica began her mental health career supporting young mothers residing in Chicago homeless shelters. That experience led to her passion to improve maternal child and infant health outcomes among underserved populations. As Monica’s career progressed she began to feel limited by her efforts as a direct service mental health provider and desired to support population health outcomes. Monica began pursing a career in public health in 2020 after her acceptance into a Master’s in Public Health program. During her studies, Monica developed a variety of population health programs and policies designed to support a variety of maternal child and infant health population outcomes. The culmination of her public health training experience, prior direct service mental health experience, and personal experiences contributed to the development of My Mind, My Body, My Journey.
