  • Summary

  • Head of Artistic Planning at the Royal Conservatoire Samantha McShane chats to me about a whole host of topics surrounding mental health throughout this episode. Sam is such a passionate advocate for openness and honesty surrounding mental health and it was really moving to hear about her own experiences as a French Horn student at the RCS. We covered so many topics including feeling like you had to change your personality in order to fit into the classical musician stereotype, how studying should have been more about finding your own identity as a musician and speaking your truth as an individual. We also covered how we both coped with anxiety and depression and the stigma that surrounded taking medication when we were both students and the incredible difference it has made to us both since.
