What have you learnt about your Hero?

Our hero is Bo Burnham, an American comedian who makes music as his comedic act, he realizes that there is a problem in mental health with younger people or less in older but still, he mentions mental health in his song and talks about it in some interviews but he is trying to use it to make people happier and make them laugh to get their mind off their mental battle.

If you could improve one thing for your Hero what would that be?

He could be less sarcastic and sometimes seem more amused on stage.

---

Do you have any ideas for a potential solution? No matter how raw, share them with your Mentors for feedback.

We have an idea of doing a place where people can talk about how they feel. They could share all of their feelings in an open, comfortable and non judgemental space with other people who might suffer from the same problem as them. There could also be some weekly activities and homework involved.

Ask your Mentor anything …. This is a chance to ask your Mentors a direct question relating to your Big Idea.

We don't have any questions.
