In this episode, Chika shares her journey through depression and the impact that her childhood had on her mental well-being as an adult. She describes her experience of therapy as life-changing and how she moved from being reluctant to see a therapist to now developing an app to help people connect with the help they need, quickly and without the fear of being stigmatised. Chika stresses the importance of raising emotionally resilient children that can stand confidently in an ever changing and challenging world.
