Life Outside the Box youth mental health podcast has reached over
75,000 people on Spotify and YouTube across our first 8 episodes.
Thank you to our sponsors, panellists, co-hosts, and all of our amazing guests who joined the KBI team for our first ever live event.
‘Mapping Futures’ brought young people from diverse backgrounds together for a live podcast event that included youth artists, poets, singers, and other creatives to reflect on managing anxiety about the future. A pre-event workshop with Hailey Hechtman, Taking a Strength-Based Approach to Mapping Your Future, ran from 5pm -6pm at the same location.
