My guest today, 16-year-old Nyla, cares deeply about the mental health struggles of young people in her community. During the pandemic, she realized that she was not the only person who was feeling lonely, isolated, and worried.

She hopes to normalize discussion around mental health issues, especially in this younger age group.
