Mental Ideas Podcast broadcast on RTHK Radio 3!
Congratulations Mind HK on the 5th year anniversary of More Than A Label. It was a joy to be one of the ambassadors taking part in an exhibition of light, art and recovery stories to mark this milestone. I attended the opening of Refraction: A Journey of Our Mind with artist Charles Tang. Attendees were invited to take home a poem inspired by mental health recovery as a memento.
I’m excited to be taking part in another epic exhibition celebrating the 5th year anniversary of Mind HK‘s trailblazing More Than A Label anti-stigma project! The exhibition will explore ambassadors‘ journeys through art, poetry, audio, films and stories. It will be held at The Rotunda, Exchange Square, Central, from 13-26 April. Please save the dates!
My conversation with fine artist George Tang Kwok-wing was published by Cha: An Asian Literary Journal yesterday. Thanks to editor Tammy Ho Lai-Ming for presenting it so beautifully 💟 and HUGE congrats, George, on a stunning exhibition at Fine Art Asia!

I discovered I’d been nominated for a GHP Mental Health Award a few weeks ago for my contribution via Mental Ideas and Bipolar Hong Kong. Well, apparently I’ve won ‘Most Dedicated Mental Health Advocate 2025’ (Hong Kong)! 😂 🙏🏼
Thanks to everyone who’s given me a platform to rant and muse about mental health, especially Mind HK and RTHK. It’s a lovely way to celebrate the 10th birthday of Bipolar Hong Kong! 🇭🇰 🩷
Find me in the Reflection Room in this World Mental Health Day episode of Brunch with Noreen on RTHK Radio 3 where Noz and I are chatting Bipolar Hong Kong and I share a poem dedicated to all the companies all over the world that care about mental health on World Mental Health Day and not quite so much the other 364 days of the year…
The poem was one of a bunch I read at Mind HK‘s Poetry, Stories and Mental Health event at the 2024 Hong Kong Lit Fest in March. Please support mental health in the workplace every day! 💜

Thanks to Variety for this nice piece about Sadie Frost joining our Contro Vento family as an executive producer on To Love A Narcissist, the history of Contro Vento since founder/director Raffaello Degruttola was BIFA-nominated for Flim, and where we boldly go next! I am proud to be producing this film with Raff and Bill Bossert. Thanks to reporter Naman Ramachandran for the much appreciated publicity and for explaining what Contro Vento means in Italian (we are full of wind).
My flight of fantasy with charming Agitated Air Stewardess Florence Wong just crash landed on VYP! You can hear other podcasts from this series here!
My podcast with Virtual Reality Dancer Eugenia Kim has just dropped on VYP! And by “just” I mean recently. And by “recently” I mean a few weeks ago. And by “weeks” I mean months. And by “months” I mean at some point last year. Enjoy!
My monologue from the land of Nod The Criminal Sleepwalker just woke up in handcuffs on YouTube’s VYP channel! Thanks to the wondrous Dr. Ahmed Elbeshlawy for the support and opportunity! If VYP poetry fans thought Sharp Pains was an odd fit for a poetry channel, wait till they hear this…
Exciting news from LA: The Depressed Comedian episode of my Mental Ideas Podcast for RTHK Radio 3 has been officially selected by the Cinemonic Entertainment Core for their 2021 Cinemonic Podcast Festival! I explore why depression is no laughing matter (or is it?) with American cartoonist Larry Feign, best known in Hong Kong as the creator of the Lily Wong cartoon strip. The festival takes place Dec 15, 2021 at 7.30pm, LA time. Mental Ideas returns to RTHK soon as a weekly strand of the 123 Show!
