YOU GOOD? How to Check-In Without Being a Weirdo by Shan and Gravel (#251).

The YOU GOOD? episodes are unlike the THT interviews you might be familiar with. They are conscious conversations with the purpose of educating and helping.

This week, Sean Mussett (aka Gravel Burns) and I discuss and outline 7 ways to check-in on someone who is going through a rough patch, suffering from poor mental health, or even suicidal. 

Don't know how to talk to your mates? Here's some ideas.
