15 | Mental Health, Addiction and Climbing w/ Harvey Merritt Wright

Harvey is a musician, hairdresser, and climber from Vancouver BC. He is best known for the recent award-winning documentary Crux, a full-length film about his life, his struggle with addiction, and his relationship with climbing. In this conversation we discuss how Harvey fell in love with climbing, the process of filming Crux, and dive deep into mental health, drug addiction and consumption. The negative stigmatization and false imprisonment of those who use illegal substances has a drastic impact on so many people's lives. We hope that this conversation is apart of reducing this stigmatization and normalizing the struggle people are going through in their own personal journey with addiction.Watch Harvey's Film "Crux" Here:https://vimeo.com/ondemand/cruxfilmHarvey's IG:@harveyharvey
