Talking Mental Health & Memes w/ Mitanshu
This week I hosted Mitanshu, nothing special about him, just a regular third-year engineering chap who's managed to capture the attention of over 46k people using memes on his page called Maiche Kazar (Goan peeps know what this means), their small beginnings, how he and the other admins are using the page to raise awareness & monetize as well. He also shares his experience dealing with his mental health and how he wants to bring people together to deal with mental health in a better way.
