Mental was created by Bobby Temps to break down mental health stigma and discrimination. Each week joined by a special guest, the podcast is a safe space to hear honest and insightful mental health interviews in the hope listeners will feel more empowered to continue the conversation with others.
​
Every Thursday we delve into a different factor in mental health and how to better manage it. You’ll also better understand different conditions from first-hand experience, with inspiring guests and surprising statistics.
​
Far more unites us than divides us. So whether you have experienced mental illness or not, they’ll be something to relate to in each episode. Oh, and remember… you are enough!
