LiveLoveLaugh (LLL) has introduced 'Lecture Series Unplugged', a quarterly event crafted to heighten awareness and maintain open dialogues about mental health. This initiative will feature notable personalities who will share their personal journeys, including their successes, failures, triumphs, and the lessons they've learned along the way.
Deepika Padukone, the founder of LiveLoveLaugh, expressed her vision: “Over the last decade, LLL has managed to successfully create a safe space for crucial mental health conversations. With 'Lecture Series Unplugged', LLL aims to reach a broader audience by offering relatable stories that can further strengthen our impact on individuals, communities and society at large.”
“This series is a significant step towards making mental health conversations as normal and necessary as discussions on physical health. Sharing our stories can break down stigma and encourage more people to seek help. By featuring personal stories, we’d like to foster a sense of connection and hope, and an understanding that mental health challenges are a common part of the human experience,” remarked Dr. Shyam Bhat, Psychiatrist and Chairperson of LiveLoveLaugh.
Co-hosted by Deepika's younger sister, Anisha Padukone, CEO of LiveLoveLaugh, and Dr. Shyam Bhat, 'Lecture Series Unplugged' promises to deliver expert insights and engaging content. The inaugural episode features actor, influencer, and content creator Danish Sait, who discusses his mental health strategies and experiences in a captivating conversation with Anisha and Dr. Bhat. "Self-awareness is key. Earlier, I used to let triggers lead me to the bottom, but now I can recognize when I'm slipping and bounce back faster. Seeing a psychiatrist really healed me because the medication aided me to calm my mind,” Sait shared during the episode, advocating for a self-compassionate approach to navigating life's challenges.
Each episode of 'Lecture Series Unplugged' will be accessible on the foundation's website and social media channels. The series aims to be an inspiring and educational resource for anyone interested in understanding mental health better, offering real-life examples of resilience and coping strategies from the guest speakers.
