Welcome to going mental. This is your host, I'm Eileen Kelly. I'm interested in the things many of us face but don't always talk about.

On the show, not only will I be sharing more about my own anxietyieties and depression, but I'm also going to be talking to a wide range of guests about their own mental health journeys.
