We're joined by Zeina Mhaidly for Episode 106 of The Beirut Banyan, and we discuss mental health issues and storytelling's abilities to positively shed light on mental illness.

Zeina is the founder of De-construct, an initiative providing individuals a venue to share their own challenges of tackling mental illness and a communal environment that addresses mental health concerns.

De-construct have conducted three events since October 2019, with more to come later this year. Check out their Facebook Page for upcoming events:
