Have you ever experienced mental distress but been too scared to talk about it?
Instead masking it with 'I'm fine'? In this inspiring talk, Katie shares her own struggles with mental illness and what can be done to start that important conversation for the purposes of both prevention and support. The time is now to talk about mental health.
