Aaryani S

Aaryani was inspired to tackle the issue of mental health awareness after her struggles with anxiety when she was 12 and the stigma she experienced first-hand. At the age of 14, she co-founded Let's Talk to spread awareness about mental health among adolescents by conducting sessions in both rural and urban schools in Karnataka. During the initial stages of her project, she struggled with self-doubt due to her young age. However, she soon realised that her youth was not her weakness but a superpower. As of Dec 2020, together with her team, she has conducted 110 sessions and impacted more than 3500 students.
