On this episode of the (IN)vision Podcast, a 12-year-old guest offered a powerful and relatable perspective on mental health. He explained that mental health looks different for everyone—similar to how someone who is colorblind sees colors differently than someone who isn’t. It doesn’t mean one way is right or wrong; it just shows how each person experiences the world in their own unique way. His message was simple but meaningful: everyone’s version of mental health is valid, and no one should feel alone in what they’re going through.
