Hard to Explain

This week, we invite our first guest Natsumi! She is an International Development Consultant specialising in Gender Analysis and Private Sector Development. She shared us her experience and knowledge in feminism, identity and mental health and how we can create a place and opportunities for dialogue in a society that shames and dismantles our tool to speak up.

Our lovely guest, Natsumi's Profile: A Gender Specialist / Business Development Consultant in International Development. Loves to travel, drink coffee and binge watch Rupal's Drag Race.

In this first episode, we introduce you to the reasons why we decided to create this platform of dialogue and sharing. By having conversations and revisiting our personal pasts to address where our mental health journey began, we talk about why it’s so important to have this place to tell stories without being judged and we invite you to join our small beginning of sharing.

Feel free to talk to us on Twitter!
