Episode Details

What happens when the voices we hear about ourselves become the voices we start believing?

Rich Vysion is a recording artist whose work centers on mental health and self-empowerment. In this conversation, he opens up about how mental abuse, trauma, self-worth, and suicide ideation shaped his personal journey and influenced his music.

Rich shares how recognizing his own sense of belonging helped him advocate for himself, why writing became an important outlet for processing difficult experiences, and how he learned to question negative beliefs about himself rather than allowing them to define his worth.

We also explore external validation, creativity and healing, the freedom artists have to choose what they speak about, and the idea that rewriting the stories we tell ourselves can change how we see our lives.

Rich’s message throughout the conversation is simple: you matter, you are worthy, and your current circumstances don’t have to define your story.
