Mental health is a big awareness topic at the moment, as more and more people come forward with their stories of how it has affected them or someone they know.

As a behavioural health practitioner of more than 20 years, Kristin Walker knows all about how mental illnesses can shape someone's future. She created a podcast network of people who suffer from different conditions and discusses with me how addiction to technology can be damaging to people's mental health.
