In this deeply thoughtful and purpose-driven conversation, mental health advocate and social entrepreneur Bharti Kher joins Lakshmi Pratury, founder of INK, for an honest dialogue on mental health equity, systems change, and the quiet resolve required to build solutions where access is limited and stigma runs deep.

Drawing from her journey across the nonprofit and development sectors, Bharti reflects on the moment that became a promise to her future self-to work toward a world where mental health support is accessible, humane, and rooted in dignity. From co-founding Flourish, a Philippines-based mental health nonprofit, to designing cost-effective, evidence-based interventions for adolescents, she shares why meaningful impact often begins with listening, restraint, and deeply human choices.
