Mike To Speak On "I'm Listening" Mental Health Discussion Today

[RogueSoul]

It goes without saying that mental health is a very important topic for the Linkin Park community. For over a year now, the members of Linkin Park, their families, and the crew have been working hard to ensure the stigma of mental health ends. Talinda Bennington and Anna Shinoda have made several appearances on TV and has even spoken at events across the world. Jim Digby has spoken about mental health on the road. Mike Shinoda is, of course, touring for his therapeutic new album Post Traumatic that documents his own journey through grief. Mike's work doesn't end there; he's speaking today morning on the I'm Listening discussion, where artists and professionals alike will be discussing mental health an trying to put an end to it.

 

The event takes place today - Sunday, August 9 - and starts at 7am CDT. You can listen to it live on their website (ImListening.org). Many guests will be speaking throughout the night: musicians including Jared Leto, Alessia Cara, Bebe Rexha, Charlie Puth, Stone Temple Pilots, Pearl Jam, and more will be speaking, as well as professionals including Dr. Chris Nowinski and Dr. Ursula Whiteside. The event will be running all day so if you have the chance to tune in, be sure to.
