Description

In the context of the current health crisis, mental health issues are becoming the norm, not the exception. It is well documented that mental health problems are on the rise globally and that pre-existing disparities in care access are only getting worse creating a stronger need for digital therapeutics. Since the onset of COVID-19, society has become more accepting of the notion that mental health is as important, if not more important, than physical health and that the two are inextricably linked and contribute to a more holistic picture of what being well means.

During this sit down, join Val Kaplan, CMO at Headspace and Natalie Silverstein, Chief Innovation Officer at Collectively as they discuss how to leverage the power of influencers to normalize conversations that have been historically taboo while also striking the right balance of brand integration. Val and Natalie will also be joined by a creator to provide their perspective developing content in collaboration with the leader in mindfulness and mental training.
