In the episode, we talk about Angela’s story, mental health awareness, and the inspiration for the app. Also, we got into what exactly is the app and what is the goal of the app. Calm On! aims to teach children ages 6-11 healthy ways to develop emotional intelligence and provide a safe, fun, and accessible way to learn how to process their concerns, worries, and fears during the pandemic (also applicable to other life transitions). Being cognizant of the attractiveness of the gaming aspect for this age group, we are trying to engage users with game reward incentives, animations, character dialogues, and fun activities; features other mental health apps don’t have. If you have kids or know anyone with kids that would benefit from this app, share this episode and the app with them!  NEWS: This is the second last episode for season 2! Tune in next week for the season 2 finale with a super special guest that is big in the Asian podcasting space. End:Thank you for listening!
