Hi friends! In this week’s episode, I chat with O’Neil about job hunting. We chat about his own experience in job hunting, the pressure of fitting into society and having immigrant parents and also what’s it’s like being a minority in the workplace.

Thank you so much O’Neil for being an awesome guest on the podcast and for being real and vulnerable with us. Check out his IG @oneilmurphs (instagram.com/oneilmurphs) for content on videography and cooking. Also check out @localsfestival (instagram.com/localsfestival) an online festival supporting locals and giving back to the community in a sustainable way.

In honour of celebrating black history month, I’ll be collaborating with some amazing people and amplifying melanated voices. Throughout the month we’ll be highlighting the importance of mental health in the black community through their stories.
