May is Mental Health Awareness Month and we’re kicking it off with an incredible woman who is a mental health advocate using her voice to destigmatize the conversation and help others feel less alone.

Gilly Chan is a well known model who’s worked with brands like Cover Girl, Adidas, Mango & was the November 2019 Playboy Playmate. However, modeling is only a small fraction of who she is. With a degree in psychology and a passion for mental health, she’s used her platform to be an advocate while providing resources and tools for anyone else who’s struggling. She launched her own digital mental health space called The Remedy Platform to specifically provide mental health resources and support to Black Indigenous People of Color as well as the LGBTQ+ community.

In this episode we chat about her modeling experience, mental health journey, embracing your natural beauty, self acceptance, police brutality, climate change and so much more. She’s multifaceted and extremely inspiring. Enjoy this episode, More Than Mental Health.
