Customer Reviews
Compelling and informative
Really love the premise of this podcast and the work Shaina is doing to bring conversations about mental health to a wide audience. Hearing creative people talk about their experiences in the industry has been enlightening and powerful— sometimes making me laugh and sometimes making me cry. I look forward to each new episode and perspective!
A Study in Perspective
One of the things I like about this podcast is that it asks a lot of questions about how mental health functions within the industry. The piece that I find really inspiring, is that it is not saying it has all of the answers, but it is searching for artists from in front and behind the camera, and getting opinions on what they think would help. It’s good conversation, aimed at making the industry a safer space, and trying to find the right ways to provide that support. Keep the convo going!
Timely!
This is so important and timely. We need more of these conversations! Thank you!!
