To mark the end of an important month which has started to bring back normality for most; we acknowledge that there is still a long way to go in recovering from the pandemic especially for those who have been most affected mentally and emotionally. We at #BWTE have dedicated this very special edition for Episode 6, to discuss the topic of mental health in order to promote Mental Health Awareness Month. We talk all things mental health with our guest speaker, Jerome Johnson of @davis_johnson_counselling, who is a person-centred counsellor.
Meet Lawrence Carlos, a Stratford-born second generation Filipino, who has nurtured his passion for art and design from his youth into a career ranging from designing international architecture projects, delving into architectural and street photography, to now planning resilient, placemaking-focused cities in Southeast Asia.
The path to this multitude of creative outlets was borne out of a desire to set himself high aspirations at a young age, having inspiring role models and competitive peers among his family and friends, respectively.
In this episode, find out how he managed to stay true to his principles despite suffering from mental health issues throughout his adult life and what made him leave East London in 2016 for a new life in the Philippines until today.
For our pilot episode we are joined by Nisha, the owner of The Beauty Room London, discussing her childhood, career and her plans for the future
