This episode of Music Is My Mantra opens the door to Mental Health Awareness Month with a reflective and deeply personal look at what mental health truly means.

In this solo episode, I explore the core elements of mental well-being—emotional, physiological, and social—and share why this topic hits so close to home. Alongside this conversation, I’m re-releasing three songs as part of my new EP: “Save Yourself,” “Galaxies Collide,” and “CSR.” Each track reflects a different lens of mental health—self, relationships, and society.

Through story, sound, and vulnerability, I share my journey navigating burnout, boundaries, sobriety, and self-compassion. This is a conversation about reclaiming your peace, tuning into your needs, and honoring your path—wherever you are on it.
