*Recorded June 2022 ⁣ - Will Wood is more than a singer - songwriter, after a great deal of criticism and attempts at cancelling him. He has come out wiser and stronger. I loved hearing his insights on mental health and how  society and culture defines what mental health & illness are. 

We go over:

+ How to keep doing what feels right to you despite people having their own erroneous idea of who you are. 

+ Cultural pressures.

+ Going viral and being opened to criticism.

+ The manipulation of social media and the radicalisation it can cause.

+ Morality and culture.

+ The amount of subjectivity around mental health. Kanye West being mocked for his mental illness.

+ How to not let other people’s opinions affect your art.
