Co-founder of Wirth hats based in Vancouver, BC, Ben shares the story of how one friend who had one dream of creating one hat has become a movement of mental health awareness. Having lost two dear friends to suicide, he committed to creating a space and an access point for everyone to have the ability to speak to professional help. For every hat purchased, a counselling session is provided for someone in need. Ben also shares his perspective of having a “close 3” whom you can count on when things are tough. It’s okay to not be okay, so long as to know who to turn to in these moments. Most of all, remember that you are not alone.LINKS:Wirth Hats Website: www.wirthhats.comWirth Hats Instagram: www.instagram.com/wirthhatsMental Health Resources: www.wirthhats.com/pages/mental-health-resources
