It’s time to listen to the Mental Corner

Harry took an idea he had and put it into action, just when everyone needed it. Covid has not been easy on anyone, listening to Harry and his guests has been a reminder that it’s ok to reach out and ask for help. To not be afraid to speak out and share your story. And especially, to know that you are not alone. Well done Harrison, looking forward to many more episodes!
