Mental Notes with Matt
Mental Notes with Matt is a real talk podcast about the messy, meaningful work of being human. Hosted by Matt, a father, performer, and mental health advocate, each episode explores themes like reinvention, grief, creativity, and self-compassion, through raw reflections and honest conversations.
Please remember that this podcast is a space for sharing personal stories and insights from my own lived experience with mental health. I am not a licensed therapist, medical doctor, or mental health professional.
