About
May, MSW RSW
It started with one simple truth: most of us never received mental health education.
My first experience with trauma came at seven, with more to follow. As the child of immigrants, I didn't have the emotional attunement or guidance to process what I was going through — and it showed. Depression. Academic probation. Relationships that weren't good for me. A quiet disconnection from the people around me.
Over the years of my personal journey, I learned what traditional education doesn’t teach - how to heal, how to connect, and how to build a life that actually feels good. Now, I lead a fulfilling life of confidence, respect, love, relationships that pour into each other, and a thriving business that greatly impacts others.
Professionally, I kept seeing the same pattern — capable people stuck in cycles of conflict, stress, and burnout, simply because no one had given them the tools to understand themselves. In shelters, hospitals, and courtrooms, I heard some version of the same line more times than I can count:
If I'd learned this sooner, I would have made different choices.
Down to Earth Support exists to close that gap — real emotional education and tools for a healthy, successful life. Simple, practical, and built to meet you where you are.
In solidarity and warmth,
May
