Testimonials

Rob Stephenson’s ‘Harmonising the Mind’ performance was an exciting blend of educational insight and creative entertainment. Delivered to a large in-person audience at Nationwide Building Society during Mental Health Awareness Week and Learning at Work Week, it set a buzzing atmosphere with its vastly different approach to mental health discussions.

Rob’s blend of lived experience, knowledge-rich narrative and DJ-skills created an ‘experience’ that enlightened us on a music-led approach to mental health resilience. The innovative format made the learning engaging, enjoyable and memorable.

Not only was this the best attended mental health event in our atrium but it was wonderful to see so many new faces in the audience.  Music truly is a great connector.

I highly recommend this session and eagerly anticipate future collaborations!
