In this episode of On a Very Serious Note, we sit down with Ms. Eiza Fusingan-Lappay — licensed psychologist, trauma counselor, and Chief WellBeing Officer at MindNation — to talk about the current state of mental health in the Philippines and how technology is reshaping the way we care for our minds.

We dive into:

• Surprising stats and trends in Filipino mental health today

• The early signs of mental distress we often miss

• How families and friends can truly support without judgment

• The role of apps like MindNation in making help more accessible

• Real-life success stories that show hope is within reach

Whether you’re someone who's curious, struggling, or simply want to support a loved one — this conversation is honest, empowering, and a reminder that you’re not alone. Plus, it’s not all serious — expect warmth, laughs, and practical takeaways you can use right away.

Listen in and join the movement to normalize mental health conversations — with heart, with humor, and with the help of tech.
