Hi friends,
I wanted to share this post with you. I’ve written a song about the impact of bullying and teen depression. I was moved by tragic stories of teen suicide in my hometown and across Canada. For some, this can be an uncomfortable topic to discuss, but I know that its important to open up as a community and be supportive to those loved ones struggling with depression as well as to stand up against bullying.
