Great messages from amazing people.

Harriet is sharing some amazing messages with the conversations she has with these amazing people.
Mental health even now is left behind in our conversations as people don’t know how to deal with it. But sharing conversations around mental health will hopefully break that silence.
Thankyou Harriet.
