Today we are joined by Themba Dlamini, from Johannesburg, South Africa. Themba’s passion for people was ignited at an early age, from organizing events in high school to joining youth cultural groups. He pursued fashion after matriculating and had to drop out due to financial constraints. He then later started working in corporate and the job required him to stand in front of people every single day. All in the while, Themba struggled with a mental illness and has come across a lot of obstacles and ailments in his life but it was the mental illness that woke him up and became clear that it was his calling. He joins us to tell us about how he started Right in Your backyard - a movement that tackles mental illness.
