This week on Mental Health Bytes*, hosts **Dr. Aninda Sidhana* and *RAH (Mr. Trauma Talks)* sit down with a true pioneer of inclusion and healing, **Umang Sheth**, a trailblazer whose life’s mission has been to build spaces of acceptance, courage, and love within the LGBTQ+ community.

With nearly 25 years of advocacy, Umang has transformed thousands of lives as the **Founder of Gay Bombay**, one of India’s first and most influential LGBTQ+ support networks, and **The Hugging Club of India**, an initiative centered around the simple yet profound power of human connection.

From helping individuals embrace their identities to supporting those battling suicidal thoughts, chemsex addiction, and isolation, Umang’s work is a testament to what compassion and community can heal. His initiatives have empowered people to come out safely, rebuild relationships with family, and rediscover self-worth.

Recognized by the *Mumbai Police Commissioner’s Office* for his outstanding service to the LGBTQ+ community, Umang’s reach extends far beyond counseling. Through awareness campaigns, social media, and advocacy, he continues to educate, uplift, and inspire millions to live authentically and fearlessly.

Join us for a deeply moving conversation on mental health, identity, and the universal need to be seen, heard, and loved.
