It's Never Too Late

This episode spotlights mental health in conversation with Raashi Thakran, a mental health advocate, social activist and an engineer from Bangalore. As a changemaker from Change.org’s flagship program – She Creates Change, in July last year, Raashi started a petition asking the government to launch a National Helpline Number for Suicide Prevention in India which has received more than 3.9 lakh signatures. This led to the creation of the KIRAN mental health rehabilitation helpline number which was launched by the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment on 7th September. She's a WICCI (Women's Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry) council member. Raashi currently works as a marketing executive at YourDost and a certified QPR Instructor. She's an alt-pop lover and a big time book hoarder.
