Mel is the mastermind behind the Beats In Mind initiative and the Headsbass compilation series, which are aimed at raising funds and bringing awareness toward mental health. Global Mental Health Day was last week on the 10th of October, so I thought it would be great to bring Mel on to discuss this topic. This episode is quite a special one in my eyes as we spend a big part of our discussion talking about mental health, the persistent stigma around mental health, why mental health issues seem to affect musicians disproportionately, and steps people can take to get better. As always, thanks for tuning in, and I hope you enjoy the show.Episode links:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pyxisdnbInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/pyxisdnb/Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/pyxisdnbHeadsbass Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/beatsinmindheadsbassIf you enjoy this podcast, why not join the community on Facebook where you can suggest future guests, topics, episodes formats and more!
