This week on the podcast I interviewed Dan Leonard, the UK-based toy photographer behind the #WithToysInMind hashtag on Instagram.
I've written before about my own struggle with depression and how I've used toy photography as a therapy. So it should come as no surprise that my ears perked up when I first discovered #WithToysInMind on Instagram. I truly believe in what Dan's trying to accomplish with this hashtag. He wants to raise awareness about mental health, fight against the stigmas that keep people from seeking or receiving help, and creating a safe space to open up about their own struggles. I was happy when he said he'd be willing to discuss the project, and his own history with depression.
