Joining me, where it really is “OK to not be OK” is Glenn Patrick, front man of Melbourne based band, Collegians, talking about the rocky, risky, yet rhapsodical world of rock music! He plays live in the studio, and introduces their 2nd, much anticipated single "Black Mass". This very song smashed into the Australian iTunes Rock charts at number 9.

Demetrio Zema – serial entrepreneur, lawyer and founder of the ‘new-gen’ law firm, Law Squared joined me recently on the airwaves to focus on the Legal Profession and it's extreme, often relentless pressure on the human condition around billable hours, vicarious trauma and social pressures. This industry is over represented when it comes to mental illness that way too often leads to the tragedy of suicide. Senior legal figures acknowledge a natural correlation between the traits that make you a good lawyer and those that might lead to mental health problems. Demetrio created Law Squared provide a better way for clients to engage with lawyers and represent the future of the superior law firm experience in action today.

Susan Cooper, General Manager of Entertainment Assist joined me to talk about their dedication to raising awareness around mental health in the Australian entertainment industry. Whilst the arts and entertainment sector brings an enormous amount of joy to Australians, recent research has identified that performers, technicians and other support workers experience an unusually high incidence of depression and anxiety that tragically contributes to our astronomical rates of suicide. Entertainment Assist are a national health promotion charity that strives for much needed change, commissioning research, advocating for workplace and educational transformation and identifying support pathways for those in distress.
