Hairdressers everywhere often speak about the \u2018role of the councillor\u2019 that many hairdressers have with their clients. Mental health is a subject that has risen up the list of things that are not only acceptable but essential to talk openly about. \xa0 Unfortunately though, for a range of reasons many people today suffer from poor mental health. As a result suicide rates in many countries - particularly amongst young men - are higher than ever. \xa0 On todays Podcast I speak with Australian hairdresser Stevie English, who is creating an online hairdressing education platform with the aim of raising \u2018awareness and support\u2019 for the issues surrounding mental health and suicide prevention. \xa0 Regardless of where you are in the world this is well worth listening to.
