In our conversation, Alyssa outlines her journey as a community organiser and social entrepreneur, and how she has helped people keep mentally healthy. She has helped over 200,000 people connect with therapists, providing personalised mental health care.

Here are some of the key things we discuss:
- Why is it so important for social justice warriors to take care of our mental health?
- What are the barriers people face in accessing mental health care, including cost and quality of care?
- The risks of workaholism
- The dangers of the pursuit of success whilst sacrificing everything else
- Burnout, dating, eating disorders, suicidal ideation, self-esteem, imposter-syndrome
